What is 51st Highland Division about?

The 51st Highland Division first fought in World War I and was reformed after being surrounded and captured in France in 1940. They underwent intensive training and fought in North Africa, helping clear minefields at El Alamein. They landed in Normandy on D-Day and engaged in heavy fighting, capturing villages but also facing strong German resistance and tank attacks. Their attack on a factory near Caen dominated by German observers failed with heavy casualties.
