I recommend you review “The Devil’s Brigade”. Canada provided crucial aid to the US during WWII, to include the expensive Dieppe raid which taught us much about the things that needed to occur during an amphibious landing.

A total of fifty US Army Rangers participated in the disastrous Dieppe raid. The Canadians bore the brunt of causalities in that attack, mostly all from The Princess Patricia Light Infantry Brigade.
