Saunders, TimHILL 112: The Key to Defeating Hitler in Normandy Details how Hill 112 was a vital defensive ground for the Germans, but it was an essential steppingstone for the British en route to the River Orne. Details the tactical problem that Hill 112 presented -- it was impossible for armor to survive on its broad plateau, while the infantry could only hold the skeletal orchards and woods at the cost of crushing casualties. For six weeks from the end of June into August, when the Allied advances finally gained momentum, Hill 112 was far too important to let the opposition hold and exploit it. Consequently, it was regularly shelled and mortared, and shrouded with smoke and dust, while soldiers of both sides clung to their respective rims of the plateau.
