Hello all!
Thank you all for your responses!
This is also where things get quite confusing for me! I have checked Fields Of Fire by Terry Copp, The Royal Canadian Armoured Corps by the RCAC Association, The Panzers And The Battle Of Normandy by Georges Bernage, Steel Inferno by Michael Reynolds and The History Of The 12th SS Panzer Division by Hubert Meyer. None of these sources can seem to agree on this engagement.
It does make me wonder if there was actually only one engagement on June 9, 1944 and that perhaps this engagement is being treated as if two engagements happened? This composite squadron is interesting. It seems there were troops from all of the regiments of the Canadian 2nd Armoured Brigade in this composite squadron. Confusing indeed! One thing is for certain though, the Canadians got the better of this round, that's for sure!
Cheers,
