Overview:
Operation Goodwood began with a terrific carpet bombing of more than 2000 bombers. At 0745 with over 1000 tanks, the Allied spearhead crossed the departure line and the 11th Armored Division advanced through numerous shocked German landsers. But after a few kilometers of light fighting, the advance units were faced with an uncommon problem: a sunken railroad denied any further advance, and the bridgelayers had to be called upon. . .Attacker: Canadian (Elements 3rd RTR, 11th Armored Division and 22nd Dragoons and 159th Infantry Regiment)
Defender: German (Remnants 16th Luftwaffe Feld Division)
