		The experience of the Fife and Forfar Yeomanry, a territorial regiment made up of part-time soldiers from a cross section of British life, is common to the many regiments which fought after D-Day.
		In the early morning July mist the Sherman tanks of the 2nd Fife and Forfar Yeomanry waddled up to the start line, their engines throbbing insistently across the still Normandy countryside.
		It was called “brewing up” and, by the early afternoon, 13 of the Yeomanry’s Shermans had met that fate even before they had reached their first objective.

		There’s a 120-meter rise between Grainville and the Fife and Forfar, so the 75mm AT gun in Grainville fires at the Churchill tanks of the 7th RTR that are about to attack with the 9th Cameronians but misses.
		The Fife and Forfar open fire on the Hauptsturmführer’s position, and the two lead fire teams of three Sherman platoons each roll a 12 and an 11, respectively, on the 11 column.
		So the Fife and Forfar and 9th Cameronians who have successfully taken Grainville activate, sending their Sherman fire team to Le Valtru while a Sherman, Firefly and Archer unit mass at the east end of Grainville for an attack on Mondrainville.

		To write a preface--and especially a short one--is a somewhat difficult task, but my intense pride in, and admiration for, the part played by the Battalion with which the gallant author was so long and honourably associated must be my excuse for undertaking to do my best.
		Many a time during the two years that I had the honour to command the 74th (Yeomanry) Division both in Palestine and France, I noted--not without a feeling of intense pride--the cheery "never-say-die" spirit which pervaded all ranks of this splendid Battalion.
		The headquarters of the Regiment was at Kirkcaldy, the four Squadrons A, B, C, and D having their headquarters respectively at Cupar, Dunfermline, Dundee, and Forfar.

		-2nd Fife and Forfar Yeomanry lost 12 tanks in the Le Porier-Les Mesnil-Fromentel area on the morning of the 18th probably to elements of 21st Panzer Division.
		The British tanks in the area considered the threat posed by the Panthers so grave that at 1258, the 23rd Hussars, at the time in Grentheville, were ordered to not attempt to advance past Soliers.
		Upon viewing these numbers one will see that at least 61 out of 125 tanks lost that day came AFTER 29th Armoured Brigade advanced to to the Bourguebus Ridge, that is at least 49%.

		Many of the independent bodies so formed were, in fact, in anticipation of the Government Act sanctioning them.
