Hello guys!
Sorry for not replying sooner, it was a long busy week at the plant, sure glad the weekend is here! Thanks for all the further information in this thread and the great pictures! This is some great stuff!
I think all the battles from June 7 to June 9, 1944 in Normandy involving the Canadians are interesting. I also think that many sources paint the wrong picture about these battles and do not give the Canadians the proper amount of credit.
All of the German counterattacks toward the beaches fell on the British and Canadian sectors, 21st Panzer Division against the British and 12th SS Panzer Division against the Canadians. The major share of the fighting fell upon the shoulders of the soldiers of the British and Canadian units.
Cheers,
