Overview:
At 0415 hours on the morning of 25 June, Operation Martlet commenced with a heavy artillery bombardment just ahead of the start line of the 49th Division. At 0500 this bombardment lifted and started to creep forward. Soon, a thick ground mist had developed, severely hindering the visibility of the advancing troops. Meanwhile, the 11th Royal Scots Fusiliers of 147th Infantry Brigade eventually pushed forward through the mist and began attacking Fontenay-le-Pesnel. The village was strongly defended by the 3rd Battalion, SS-Panzer Grenadier Regiment 26. (SS-Panzer Division 12. Hitlerjugend).Attacker: British (Royal Scots Fusiliers and 8th Armored Brigade)
Defender: German (SS) (Bataillon III, SS-Panzer-Grenadier-Regiment 26, SS-Panzer Division 12)
