Dude, the Ardennes Offensive? Do your history. Most of the Germans in the offensive were conscripted along the lines you just said. And the Germans never stood a chance of winning it. They had to bring in troops from the Eastern Front for the battle, and even that wasn't enough. Even if D-Day failed, the Allies were still in Italy, and could have easily broken out, with the proper planning. They would get into Austria, and once they get beyond that, Germany falls.
