"It all went according to plan. There was a massive expenditure of ammunition on suspected enemy positions. Medium machine-guns kept up continuous pressure and tanks were interspersed with the infantry. There was a smoke-screen to cover the last and most dangerous stretch. The infantry plodded remorselessly on with bayonets fixed for the final assault across the river. The Germans held their fire until the Durhams were within some fifty yards, more or less point-blank range, then mowed the leading platoons down." - from the CMAK Companion, Chapter 88, "It All Went According To Plan".

"As the firing tapered off, the Germans stared in awe at the scene before them, the burning American tanks almost seeming to have been lined up to have their picture taken. Wolff recalled how his battalion commander, “laughing like a boy, went from company to company asking us and himself too: ‘Did you ever see anything like it? Did you ever see anything like it?’”…“I can still see the long line of fires in front of which our tanks cruised up and down, their engines humming, calm yet proud after a good day’s work,” he recalled." - from the CMAK Companion, Chapter 71, "Proud After A Good Day's Work".

"That was what things looked like when Tim Palmer lost his fourth tank. He was fired at from a range at which even the Panzer III’s 50 mm shells arrived in a fairly spent state. But the fire from this enemy Panzer was hellishly accurate. Palmer stood in the turret with his radio operator and watched the Panzers approaching, stopping, firing, when a projectile penetrated the wall of the turret with a metallic clang and lodged there. The radio operator dropped down into the vehicle out of sheer fright. The next round pierced the portal armor and also stuck fast just in front of the poor fellow. This so horrified the driver that he jumped out and ran mindlessly into the desert. A third hit jammed the gun." - from the CMAK Companion, Chapter 30, "The Point of Pain"
