Earth & Steel
The German defence of France June-September 1944.
"Crack! Crack! The report and muzzle flash of the guns could be seen on the road. The lead two Panthers were firing round after round from their guns. They cleared the road with their fire and roared into the village at top speed. That was the way we had fought in the east¸ but would these surprise tactics achieve the same for us in Normandy?"
- Kurt 'Panzer' Meyer¸ 12. SS-Panzerdivison¸ June 1944.
