Historical Background:
Sword Beach, 07h30,10 LCAs landed two assault companies of the 2nd East Yorkshire Regiment on Queen Red, just in front of the German strongpoint Wn18, called "Cod" by the Allies and defended by the German 10/736 company. In spite of the support given by the "Funnies" of the 22nd Dragoons and the DD tanks of the 13th/18th Hussars, the East York lost 200 men on the beach. On their right, on Queen White, two assault companies of the 1st South Lancashire Regiment suffered heavy losses as well but succeeded to leave the beach and to attack "Cod" from behind. British and French commandos landed just after the infantrymen of the 8th brigade and suffered some losses when crossing the beach under German fire. The French commandos of Philippe Kieffer gathered on the old holiday camp before to advance to their objective, the Casino of Riva Bella.
