Since the last video about the battle for the conquest of the strategic city of Battipaglia, where the German paratroopers, the feared fallschirmjager, with a force of little more than one company and three tanks managed to overcome a British battalion, capturing many prisoners, which usually be an unusual fact in situations where these forces meet.
British forces are often extremely resistant to surrender, and typically have professional and competent leadership and excellent morale.
These facts seem very contradictory with the events of the last series, Counterattack in Battipaglia, where despite having previously structured defensive positions in stone buildings protecting their troops, they were easily overwhelmed by the enemy.
In addition, the battle took place in an urban warfare scenario, which frankly favors the defending forces, with a usual calculation being the need for a manpower ratio of at least 3 to 1 in favor of the attackers for the operation to be viable.
And this was not the case, as British numbers far outnumbered the hostile forces.
The tanks provided the Germans with great firepower, but this enormous advantage was limited by the urban environment.
This great German advantage proved susceptible to attack by the British infantry's anti-tank weapons, the famous PIAT, which, from Jim's point of view, were badly used.
With these issues in mind, Jim has decided to replace the British High Command, and will personally lead British forces in this series, now from an Allied perspective.
