In this video, using the latest technology, unique archive footage, and the testimony of those who were there, we will follow in the tank tracks of one unit and one group of men of the 3rd Royal Tank Regiment, as they spearheaded the advance in its opening hours. This is the story of Operation Goodwood. Creating these videos is a lot of work, and it would not be possible without your support.
