Maps used by General Omar Bradley to plan Operation Cobra, the breakout of American forces from Omaha and Utah beaches after the invasion of Normandy, have emerged. The maps were drawn up at the end of each day of fighting, allowing Bradley to plan his maneuvers for the following day. The map from June 6 (left), is sparse, reflecting the confusing situation on the ground. It shows the Allies missed all their main objectives, but carved out strategically important beachheads from which to push forward with the invasion. By the end of June 7 (top right), British forces had linked Gold, Sword and Juno beaches and begun pushing inland despite German forces rushing up to stop them, while American infantry was still bogged down at Omaha and Utah. On June 8 Allied forces came pouring ashore (bottom right), as the British carved out a swathe of territory that would be used to establish airfields. Bradley's forces, however, faced fierce opposition and made little progress. Despite the difficulties, his plans eventually proved a success, as the Allies liberated Caen on July 21, and Paris around a month later. The maps are now up for auction.

Trump's Syria U-Turn: What Next? It is not always a bad thing for political leaders to give the impression that they are unpredictable. It makes it much more difficult for their enemies to calibrate responses. But Donald Trump is not unpredictable in a good way. He is erratic. His aides have no way of assessing what his next move will be. As a result, they can't plan ahead. Do they have any idea what they're going to do next, now that they moved the Syria conflict into a new phase? I doubt it very much. Robin Lustig Journalist and broadcaster
