The Black Bull by
Patrick Delaforce
The 11th Armoured Division, famous for
its Black Bull insignia, was widely recognised as being among the best
armoured divisions in north-west Europe during the Second World War. This
book tells the story of the Division in the words of the soldiers who
fought with it: of its part in the three ferocious battles in Normandy -
Epsom, Goodwood and Bluecoat, the great 'Swan' to Amiens, the taking of
Antwerp; right flanking for Market Garden, back-up in the Ardennes and the
final slog into Germany across well-defended river barriers, to the
liberation of Belsen, Lübeck and the Danish frontier. The Division
suffered 10,000 casualties, with almost 2,000 lost in action, and so this
is also a story of courage and the hardships of a winter campaign, of
being wounded, comradeship and fighting fear.
Contributions are included from 12 of
the regiments who proudly wore the sign of the Black Bull. Memories from
troop commanders and riflemen, bombadiers and signal men, tank crews,
troop leaders and from the dashing GOC are brought together to reveal what
life was like at the sharp end.
