(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

You will bring about the destruction of the German war machine, the elimination¹ of Nazi² tyranny over the oppressed peoples of Europe, and security for ourselves in a free world.

Your task will not be an easy one. Your enemy is well trained, well equipped, and battle-hardened. He will fight savagely³.

But this is the year 1944. Much has happened since the Nazi triumphs of 1940-41.

The United Nations have inflicted⁴ upon the Germans great defeat in open battle man to man. Our air offensive has seriously reduced their strength in the air and their capacity to wage war on the ground.

Our home fronts have given us an overwhelming superiority in weapons and munitions⁵ of war and placed at our disposal great reserves of trained fighting men.

The tide has turned.

The free men of the world are marching together to victory. I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty, and skill in battle.

We will accept nothing less than full victory.

Good luck, and let us all beseech⁶ the blessings⁷ of Almighty⁸ God upon this great and noble undertaking⁹.
