Question

why did operation overlord surprise the germans?
○ they did not think the allies would invade europe.
○ they expected the allies to invade farther north.
○ they did not think the allies would invade in good weather.
○ they expected the invasion to come the following year.

Explanation:

Operation Overlord (D - Day invasion) surprised the Germans because they expected the Allies to invade farther north (e.g., at Calais) due to Allied deception operations. The other options are incorrect: the Germans knew an invasion of Europe was likely, weather was not the main surprise factor, and they didn't expect the invasion to be delayed a year.

Answer:

B. They expected the Allies to invade farther north.
