My infantry are all Calgary Highlanders, so Sherbrooke Fusiliers would be a better match (4th Div tended to support their own infantry, and SAR was technically recce, too, as everyone here knows). But my figure of Currie is so cool looking, and there is that whole VC thing too....

Come to think of it, I don't really know how often 2nd CID operated with tank support; I would presume they would have come from 2nd CAB - but they supported 3rd CID also. Sherbrookes lost the better part of a squadron supporting HLI at Buron in July, for example, just as 2nd CID was getting ashore. I defer to the armour experts here; did 2nd CAB provide much support to 2nd CID - and if not, who did?
