Best guess is he was being liberal with the page count and talking about D-Day by Stephen Ambrose (guy who wrote Band of Brothers), https://www.amazon.com/Day-June-Climactic-Battle-World/dp/068480137X
I suggest reading Stephen Ambrose's book on D-Day. The amount of planning, logistics, manpower, and whatnot that culminated in D-Day is nuts.

I always felt Stephen Ambrose did great work on his books.
He also wrote a book called D-Day which is also a very good WWII read. Along with many other historical works spanning from the American Civil War through the Cold War. D-Day by Ambrose, Ambrose's other books.
Actually on the western front this did happen a lot. Especially in machine gun nests which were basically made up of 4-5 conscripts with a German officer responsible for them. Often times they would just shoot the officer and surrender to the Allies advancing their way. This book is really good if you're interested in the subject.
