Overview:
On May 22, German tanks reached Boulogne and split the Allied armies at the Somme River. The British 1st Armoured Division, in France for less than four days, was ordered to retake three river crossings with the support of lorry-borne Territorials from the Border Regiment. But when Lt. Gavin of the Queen’s Bays topped the last hill before the bridge, smoke from the woods below told his troop that the infantry had arrived before them – and blundered into an ambush. The Dragoons advanced to the rescue.Attacker: German (Infantarie-Regiment 5 and Aufklärungs-Abteilung 2, Infanterie-Division 2 (mot.))
Defender: British (D Company, 4th Battalion, Border Regiment, "Beauforce" and HQ and 4 Troop, C Squadron, 2nd Dragoon Guards, 1st Armoured Division)
