[edit] Notable?

Whilst I would not argue that this was not an important event in the Western Front, is it actually important enough to go in the infobox for the Western Front alongside Operation Market-Garden and D-Day? Skinny87 (talk) 11:34, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

I believe it is. It helps break the illussion that the German Army was invinciable, and gives some much needed credit to the small countries who are, often in books, shown as pushovers for Germany. (Red4tribe (talk) 16:33, 21 April 2008 (UTC))
