主持人：1944年，盟军在欧洲战场策划了一系列重大军事行动。虽然诺曼底登陆因其规模和戏剧性而备受瞩目，但龙骑兵行动，即法国南部的登陆，同样至关重要，却常常被人们所忽视。最初，盟军计划同时在诺曼底和法国南部展开攻势，但由于资源限制，特别是登陆艇的短缺，这一计划未能实现。温斯顿·丘吉尔曾反对该行动，倾向于将兵力集中在意大利和巴尔干地区，但美国军方领导人，特别是乔治·马歇尔将军，坚持认为法国南部登陆对于确保盟军的后勤供应至关重要。诺曼底的港口容量不足以支持大规模的军事行动，而法国南部的港口则能提供必要的补给线。龙骑兵行动的成功，为盟军提供了急需的港口设施，加速了德军的溃败，并为法国的解放奠定了基础。此外，法国军队在解放本国领土的行动中发挥了关键作用，这不仅恢复了法国的民族自豪感，也巩固了戴高乐的政治地位。我认为，龙骑兵行动是美国后勤能力和适应能力的完美体现，它对二战的最终胜利做出了不可磨灭的贡献。

- Operation Dragoon, an amphibious landing in Southern France, was a significant Allied operation in 1944.
- It was initially planned to be simultaneous with D-Day, but resource constraints postponed it.
- Churchill opposed the invasion, while American leaders like General Marshall strongly supported it.
- The invasion's primary goal was to create a second front in France and alleviate logistical pressures on Normandy.
