The Breskens Pocket was a pocket of fortified German resistance against the Canadian First Army in the Battle of the Scheldt during the Second World War. It was chiefly situated on the southern shore of the Scheldt estuary in the southern Netherlands, near the Belgian border. It was named after the town of Breskens, which was later freed from German occupation during Operation Switchback. (en) La poche de Breskens est une poche de résistance fortifiée allemande qui résista à la Première Armée canadienne durant la bataille de l'Escaut en octobre et novembre 1944, lors de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Elle était située sur la rive sud de l'estuaire de l'Escaut dans le sud des Pays-Bas, près de la frontière belge. Elle a été nommée d'après la ville de Breskens, qui fut libérée de l'occupation allemande au cours de l'opération Switchback. (fr) |
