In World War II, the 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion was the elite of the Canadian Army. The paras were the first to land in France the night before D-Day, providing invaluable assistance during the mission. They were also enlisted to ensure that the Soviet army stopped at the agreed upon line in Germany once the Nazis began retreating. Arriving and creating a substantial roadblock just 2 hours before the Russians, the Canadian paras were able to hold the line in a 4-day armed standoff that end
