You're Top Poster: #2   | Operations of WW2 - T Operation Totalise During World War II, Operation Totalise (Allies, 1944) was a ground attack on 7 August 1944 by British, Canadian and Polish forces to break out from the Normandy beachhead along the Caen-Falaise road. It was the first operation in history in which First Canadian Army took a leading role. The First Canadian Army had become operational on the Continent just days before. Although the attack failed in its objective, it did serve as a spoiling attack. Read more here: Operation Totalise - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You chose dishonor and you will have war." (Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.) What did the Australians do in ww2 and other conflicts?
