Historical Background:
On the 5th of June 1940, the German army began the operation Fall Rot : the battle of France. The Somme front was quickly broken in spite of a fierce defense by French units. The 9th French Army Corps and a part of the 51th Highland Division were surrounded in the pocket of Saint Valery en Caux by troops of the 5 and 7.Panzer Division and 2.Infanterie (Mot.) Division. The hope of a sea evacuation, as in Dunkirk, was quickly forgotten by lack of transport (only some 1700 Scottish soldiers had been evacuated). On the 12th of June, exhausted and out of ammunition, the surrounded troops surrendered to General Rommel, commander of the 7.Panzer Division.
