Overview:

The Falaise Pocket campaign was bringing about a highly successful end to the fighting in Normandy. The jaws of the trap were about to be shut on the German Armies. The German commanders knew what had to be done and how to do it. There were three bridges across the Dives capable of bearing tanks and the only one not yet in Allied hands was at St. Lambert. Canadian forces secured the village of St. Lambert on the morning of the 19th. The next night, the Germans made a last ditch break-out attempt. . .
