(Subject: World War II - Western Europe) An account of the Allied Invasion of the South of France which took place between Toulon and Cannes on August 15th, 1944. Churchill argued that Operation Dragoon diverted resources that would have been put to better use in an invasion of the oil producing regions of the Balkans, and then possibly to other Eastern European countries. In addition to further limiting Germany's access to much needed oil, it would also have better positioned the West for the peace following World War II by liberating these areas from the German occupation and forestalling the Red Army.
