== Conflict ==
At the end of July 1944 in Normandy, the IInd Canadian Corps under General Simonds attempted to vainquish the German resistance south of Caen. But the commitment of two SS Armoured-Korps made each kilometer of progression extremely costly. Moreover the Germans had built each Norman town in strongpoints the Canadians must conquer.

On 7 August, the Operation Totalize began with waves of Lancaster and Halifax heavy bombers. May-sur-Orne vanished in the bombs dust. Tanks and infantry sprang in the morning hours of 8 August. The French Canadians of The Fusiliers Mont Royal under Lieutenant-colonel Gauvreau suffered losses on their departure line. In the vicinity of May-sur-Orne a deluge of artillery and machine-guns fire stopped dead two assaults of the Canadians. The allied attack was renewed with support of Crocodiles flame-thrower tanks; after a fierce resistance, the German grenadiere withdrew, around 6 pm. The Fusiliers Mont Royal entered May-sur-Orne.
