Canadian Troops Raid Analysis

During the course of the Second World War, Canada evolved into a powerful, resourceful nation that was needed by the Allies. Canada contributed significantly to the Allied war effort during World War II where they fought on land, water and air and assisted indirectly from the home front. On land, they fought in numerous battles and campaigns such as D-Day, Hong Kong, and the Italian campaign. However, they were also strong and resourceful when it came to air and naval forces in battle. But even outside of battle, Canada was still able to make a contribution through its civilians.

The German troops were fighting fearlessly on the east end of Europe, ready to take over Russia, but once the Allied forces show up in Sicily at the demand of the Soviet leader, Joseph Stalin. The German’s attention is diverted away from Russia and taking over the Eastern Front to saving their precious Italian land which served as a strategic location for the Axis. The Germans had tried to save Italy since it was their captured land and also territory of the Axis powers. But when Canada came into play, the Germans found themselves in a tough situation where they had to use only their utmost intelligent troops in order to fight back against the support that the Allies received from Canada.

By noon the Canadians had parts of the Ridge secured with The Pimple being the last by the end of the day. Only a few days later they managed to capture The Pimple also. Canada had succeeded where Britain and France, superior countries had failed. Vimy marked the only success the Allied forces had seen that spring. 3,598 Canadians were killed and 7,000 injured due to Vimy but, they died in a battle which helped Canada gain its independance.

It began in september 1940 when the German Luftwaffe bombarding major British cities in a blitz of air attacks. British citizens had to spend their night in underground bomb shelters. Eighty Canadian pilots join the royal air force in order to prevent German attacks. The pilots faced a dangerous task and in the first few weeks, 16 Canadian pilots were killed. However, as time went on there skills and success rates improved. The battle continued until may 1941 and with the help Canadian pilots, 3000 enemy aircraft were shot down. Canada’s contribution was an essential cause of the victory.

The Americans, aware that they had been detected, decided to launch the raid early. They launched 200 miles further out at sea than was planned. Between eight and nine AM all 16 B-25s were launched.

Next was after D-Day, which was June 6, 1944. Western Europe fighting got intense, and because of that there were lots of Canadian Casualties. King finally agreed on conscription and sending conscripted soldiers overseas.

Despite being at a significant disadvantage, 4963 Canadians volunteered to risk their lives in order to take the port and gain intelligence on German defense systems.

Intelligence gathering and collection in the United States has significantly increased over time. This paper examines how intelligence reporting and pre-mission planning was crucial to the success of the United Nations involvement at The Battle of Inchon during the Korean War. By examining how intelligence played a role in this battle, you will be able to understand why it is important to gather and collect intelligence prior to every mission executed. Intelligence collection should be the baseline for all military operations. Inchon Landing has an ample amount of actionable intelligence; collected and disseminated appropriately we will discuss how it played a role in a low probability mission accomplishment to the last great amphibious assault in history. This paper provides detailed explanations on why The Battle of Inchon was a success and what could have been the outcome had it gone the other way.

Finally, through the summer of 1944, the fighting continued through choking dust and intense heat. The conditions were terrible and the enemy was ruthless, but the troops moved forward. Canadians played an important role in closing the “Falaise Gap” in mid-August as the Germans finally retreated in the face of the Allied offensive. On August 25, 1944, Paris was liberated by the Allies, bringing the Normandy campaign officially to a close. The effort and Canada's role in clearing Normandy of Nazi forces, then liberating the Netherlands, embodies the country's outsized role in the Second World War, according to David Bercuson, director of the Centre for Military and Strategic Studies at the University of Calgary. Although the First World War

Juno was the landing area for the 3rd Canadian Division. The division was to assault the coast through a line of small resort towns from Graye-Sur-Mer to St Aubin (Neillands & Norman, 232). There were different names for different sectors of the invasion. There was 'Mike Red' and 'Mike Green' to the west side, and 'Nan Red', 'Nan Green', and 'Nan White to the east (Neillands & Norman, 233). Landing on the beach there was the Royal Winnipeg Rifles, the Regina Rifle Regiment, the Canadian Scottish Regiment, the Queen's Own Rifles of Canada, the French Canadian Regiment de la Chaudiere and the North Shore (Chartwell, 52). Now D-Day, or some call it Juno Beach, is a defining moment and played a big role for Canadians in the development of their future in military affairs. What makes it a defining moment is that Canada succeeded in their objectives, Canada supported the mother country and allies in this battle, and Canada fought the most in D-Day. But for Canada that was no problem.

I will be revising the third paragraph, as the comments show that I wasn’t clear with my claim of the intelligence agencies being very unaware of the damage they have caused while they are trying to fulfill a mission. The way I’m going to rewrite this paragraph, is to give evidence from the text to support my claim rather than give a brief summary of a chapter.

Press Secretary Sean Spicer confirms the raid was a “success by all accounts”- a 25:1 civilian to military casualty rate is now a standard. Perhaps the problem before was there was never enough
