Re: Gallipoli all over again.
Yes, Dieppe was also the fault of the Canadian military command.
Terran C: Yes, the German defenses were formidable at that location, however, if the Canadian troops had had the air support they had been promised, the fight would have been more of a fight, and less of a massacre. However, for some reason, the air support was delayed, but the ground invasion went on anyways....in daylight. The raid had been planned for the pre-dawn hours so they would have the element of surprise on their side, but for some reason they were delayed, but decided to send the troops into the slaughter anyways.
