OPERATION SEA LION Play Store : Amazon / free : local apk The against-all-odds German plan to invade the United Kingdom in the Fall of 1940.

It's width was only a fraction of what WWII-era amphibious military doctrine considered wise.

TARAWA 1943 Play Store : Amazon / free : local APK Tarawa gave the US Marine Corps a chance to put to the test its doctrine on how to do an amphibious assault on a fortified atoll. Several challenges emerged: The smoke from naval bombardment killed visibility, and the coral reefs shredded the boats (resulting founding of the US Navy Underwater Demolition Teams AKA US Navy SEALS).

The combat on Leyte escalated into massive battle requiring US to commit all their reserves. BATTLE OF GUADALCANAL Play Store : Amazon / free : local APK Guadalcanal, an inhospitable island located in the Solomon Islands in the Pacific, had never interested anybody...
