The Darkest Day of Rommel's Ghost Divison - Battle of Arras (1940)

The British counter-attack at Arras in 1940 resulted in major losses for Rommel's 7. Panzerdivision better known as the Ghostdivision. Yet, there are various misconceptions about the Battle of Arras (1940), e.g., that it was a Tank Battle, for which there seems to be little evidence according to research from Karl-Heinz Frieser.
