 | | Eisenhower, Bradley, and Monty eventually found that the plans were too conservative, and after the three generals convened, Eisenhower decided to increase the landing force from three divisions to five. Bradley also proposed a night landing, but was overruled by the other generals. |
 | | Bradley, however, ordered Patton to halt his closure of the Falaise bottleneck, thus leaving the neck open for hundreds of thousands of Germans to escape. Nonetheless, the battle signaled the end of the fighting in Normandy. |
