78. Sorry, I don't know about the Dieppe Raid

and I know the US was there on the beaches of Normandy. I don't know what battle the previous poster was referring to. Still irrelevant to my point: Canada enter WWII 2 years before the US. I'm not going to critique how well their battles went for those 2 years. We needed to be attacked directly before we joined, Canada didn't.
