The German intention was to sever Britain's trading links with the world, guaranteeing her capitulation. 3) The Battle for Russia Hitler's plan for the conquest of Russia called for a classic Blitzkrieg offensive, which would be pressed ruthlessly to its conclusion within the course of a single season's campaign.

4) The Battle for Italy When victory in North Africa seemed assured,Allied Planners turned their attention to Italy. The objective was to seize Rome, knock Italy out of the war and push north towards Austria. 5)The Battle of Leyte Gulf To restore American prestige in the Pacific, Roosevelt authorised an invasion of the Philippines, a former US territory and the scene of a humiliating defeat at the hands of Japan in 1942. 6) The Battle of the Rhine During the last months of 1944 the British and Americans pressed steadily through France and Belgium to the western frontiers of the Third Reich.
