2) Unit History for Ground Combat Units (Text list of major battles etc events: Select Unit – Info – Unit History).Situation on 7th of August 1944: British and Canadian troops had tied down elite German formations near Caen while the entire US Third Army had broken through from Normandy to Brittany via Avranches. However, German HQ realized that by advancing just 30 km (20 miles) from Mortain to Avranches they could cut off the First and Third US Armies. Surely battle-hardened yet exhausted Panzer and Waffen SS Divisions could push this small sector of the front line it forward a short distance of 30 km? The Allies realized that if they could contain this German attempt they could trap Germans in the Falaise area. The only one thing was sure: At the end of this maneuvering either several German or American armies would be cut off.
