Bad weather delayed the invasion. That same day, 1,000 British bombers dropped 5,000 tons of munitions on Nazi gun batteries along the Normandy coast to cripple Germany's defenses before the imminent invasion. U.S. Army infantry men approaching Omaha Beach, Normandy, France on June 6, 1944.

Answer:

The defending Germans hampered the D-day invasion

Step-by-step explanation:

The Germans had a good vantage point of the high ground so the allies had trouble pushing forward with the constant rain of bullets from above them.
