Battle of Authie. In Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts you can fight for Caen from the british perspective and i always wondered how realistic the depiction has been. Suggestion for a series: for each mission of this game do a 5-10min video to cover the background. Keep up the good work!

I wanna see Gold, everyones like saying Omaha was the only beach that had stiff resistance when in reality it wasn’t the only one. 1st Hampshire regiment Jig Green sector of Gold at Le Hamel landed without tank support due to the high tide and were pinned down by elements of the 352nd division, about 4 companies landed in the first wave of the battalion which was A,B,C, and D Companies and lost over 200 casualties along with that.

My dad was there with no 4 Commandos. Lord Lovat mentioned my dad twice in his memoirs, first quoting his description of the English Channel as “Lumpy”, and second to describe his piloting of their landing craft onto Sword Beach Red Sector with the call “I’m going in!”

Brits and Canadians were fighting all the Elite heavy SS Panzer divisions around Caen and beyond. 8 elite Panzer Divisions, 3 Heavy Tank Battalions, and 7 Infantry Divisions at Caen alone. USA were fighting mostly stomach divisions.

The division's advance to the areas near the British-Canadian landing beaches of Sword and Juno proceeded slowly due to Allied air attacks. The first units of the 12th SS reached their assembly area near Evrecy at 22:00 hours on 6 June but the Panther battalion ran out of fuel east of the Orne River.[11] According to Marc Milner, "[t]his was just the first example of sloppy staff work and command and control that characterized 12th SS Division's experience in the beachhead battles".[12] Marc Milner is a Canadian military and naval historian, author of several books including one novel. He is Director of the Gregg Centre for the Study of War and Society at the University of New Brunswick.

British dead on 6th June at Sword now totalled as 1,400 based on grave counts. Previously had been underestimated as no official records kept.

My Grandad Nicholas was in the Second Wave on Sword. He remembers the Piper and being ordered to get off the beach ASAP. I have a photo of him and his mate Nobby stopping for a photo. His friend was killed fighting the SS Panzers tye following day. They were both Royal Enginners in the Polar Bears.

It's sobering to think of the armour that the British and Canadians had to face in the Normandy campaign, Tiger 1's Tiger 2's Panthers and the kitchen sink. Oh - apart from that Tiger that got totally lost and attacked the US in 'Saving Private Ryan' (who managed to hit the beach in the only landing craft manned by US Navy bods). Officers and maps eh?

THANK YOU for telling the world how D Day didn’t just have one beach. ...I kinda guessed the glider attack on (checks map) Horsa bridge would be successful :D But damn, those paratroopers. Only got 1/7 of their men, went for it anyway and succeeded.

Overlord (not Sword Beach or Gold Beach) is a 1975 black-and-white British war film written and directed by Stuart Cooper. Set during the Second World War, around the D-Day invasion, the film is about a young British soldier's experiences and his meditations on being part of the war machinery, including his premonitions of death.

@@ralphgreenjr.2466this is why Americans are disliked. You didn’t save anyone. We were art war long before you. Yes we all helped each other and deserve massive respect but even with the Americans it wasn’t a close victory so think about that.
