My grandfather fought there and saw the Typhoons dive bomb the German Panzers at a fairly close range. Let us not forget the British contribution, too.
How the F could you not mentioned about Polish 1st Armoured Division under General Maczek, which closed the "pocket" is this just ignorance or just simple lack of knowledge? Or maybe you are one of those ww2 experts calling WW2 German Nazi Death Camps "Polis Death Camps"?
@wicek777 This is an actual "battlefield" report by the BBC in 1944! I imagine William C Hottelet could only report the facts as they were available to him during the Falaise action in 1944. Hence he never mentioned the Polish armour...
