After much pondering, I decided to go ahead and add this relatively unchanged from the original source. My reasons are 1) It is too important a topic to not have had an article for this long 2) the original is an excellent source 3) the military history project members I feel will do a much better job together dissecting this and getting it up to standard than I can do myself. While fairly complete, it does need work, in my opinion, in the following areas:

• POV - very America-centric (as it is from a US military source)
• reduction in size - perhaps too detailed

Hello. The problem is that this is the name of the U.S. campaign, not the Allied one on the whole. In regards to Western Europe, we've decided to break it down by different standards then the U.S.:

• Normandy (D-Day to the Liberation of Paris)
• Battle of the Siegfried Line (Liberation of Paris to the start of the Battle of the Bulge)
• Battle of the Bulge
• Central Europe (End of the Battle of the Bulge to the German surrender)
