Operation Dragoon preceded the Allied Lorraine Campaign in Northern France in August 1944, after failing to be executed in conjunction with which famous Allied military operation in Normandy?
Lorraine Campaign Lorraine Campaign is a term used by U.S. Army historians to describe operations of the U.S. Third Army in Lorraine during World War II from September 1 through December 18, 1944. Official U.S. Army campaign names for this period and location are "Northern France" and "Rhineland". The term was popularized by the publication of a volume of the same name by the U.S. Army in 1950. As written by the volume's author:
Operation Totalize Operation Totalize (also spelled Operation Totalise in recent British sources) was an offensive launched by Allied troops in the First Canadian Army during the later stages of Operation Overlord, from 8 to 9 August 1944. The intention was to break through the German defences south of Caen on the eastern flank of the Allied positions in Normandy and exploit success by driving south, to capture the high ground north of the city of Falaise. The goal was to collapse the German front and cut off the retreat of German forces fighting the Allied armies further west. The battle is considered the inaugural operation of the First Canadian Army, which had been activated on 23 July.
