soldiers in action

Caption: Canadian forces advance toward Carpiquet airport on the outskirts of Caen, Normandy.
Operation Windsor was a Canadian offensive launched as part of the Battle of Normandy, taking place on 4–5 July 1944. The 3rd Canadian Infantry attacked Carpiquet in conjunction with flanking attacks by armoured regiments. Although the 8th Brigade captured Carpiquet by mid-afternoon, heavy resistance to the south prevented the capture of the airfield. The following day, Canadian Forces repelled several German counter attacks, held Carpiquet in preparation for more attacks on Caen as part of Operation Charnwood. The 3rd Canadian Infantry division meets many difficulties to dislodge the Hilterjugend fanaticized soldiers who defend each farm, each crossroads and who fight until death.
