    I don't think they were in Normandy very much. They were stationed in Norway til the end of June, and then moved to France. I would say they weren't in the Normandy area until mid July at the earliest, and I am not sure when they were actually put onto the line, but they were pulled out of the line during Operation Totalize (August 8-13). They did avoid the Falaise pocket though...

      GR 1055 was in Normandy, only after beginning of august, in order to relieve SS Pz Div. "LAH". The 89. ID arrived from Norway in july, and stayed few weeks in upper Normandy, northern of the Seine, before to take place southern of Caen, along the road to Falaise.

        Many thanks for the answers and help.

        But is it possible, that the 1055th had some action, not the great battle but fights, during the 20.06 in the normandy near le havre?

        regards ronnie

          "Action" near Le Havre in june, I don't think. The regiment only stayed there. But there was no battle action at that moment.

              Hello Ronnie,
              I'm curious in your question. Would you mind my asking why you were asking about GR1055 on this date & location?

              Kind Regards,
              Simon.
