Disaster at Dieppe, France, 19th August 1942 by David Pentland.
Under pressure from Stalin to open a second front in Europe, Operation Jubilee was designed ostensibly as a reconnaissance in force on the French coast, to show the feasibility of taking and holding a major defended port for a day, in this case Dieppe. The plan devised by Lord Louis Mountbatten failed due to inadequate naval and air support, carrying out the landing in daylight and general lack of intelligence of the target. Here new Churchill tanks of the 14th Canadian Tank Regiment (The Calgary Regiment), with men of the Royal Hamilton Light Infantry and Fusiliers Mont-Royals, struggle to fight their way off the beach. Only a handful of men penetrated into the town itself, and eventually the remaining troops were ordered to withdraw. Out of 5086 soldiers who landed only 1443 returned.

in Europe, Operation Jubilee was designed ostensibly as a reconnaissance
in force on the French coast, to show the feasibility of taking and

devised by Lord Louis Mountbatten failed due to inadequate naval and air
support, carrying out the landing in daylight and general lack of

their way off the beach. Only a handful of men penetrated into the town
itself, and eventually the remaining troops were ordered to withdraw.
Out of 5086 soldiers who landed only 1443 returned. Raid on
Dieppe. In military art prints. The Dieppe Raid was planned in April1
942 by Bernard Montgomery and admiral Louis Mountbatten after Winston
Churchill was pressured by Joseph Stalin to open a second front in
Europe. This experimental amphibious assault at Dieppe took place
on the 19th august 1942. A small mixed force of 5,000 Canadian
troops and 1,000 British Troops landed at Dieppe and came under
immediate attack by General Kurt Zeitzler's German troops. and within
hours a total of 4,000 Canadian and British troops were either dead or
captured. These military art prints pay tribute to the heroic Canadian
and British troops who took part in the assault.
