Karl-Heinz Frieser in his book Blitzkrieg Legend gives a detailed overview on the Battle of France and also on the so called "halt order" (Halte-Befehl). In this video I present a short summary of Friesers view. See notes on Accuracy & “Methodology” (bottom) for more detailed information. ---** Credits & Special Thanks **--- The Counter-Design is heavily inspired by Black ICE Mod for the game Hearts of Iron 3 by Paradox Interactive https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?forums/blackice.467/ ---** Sources **--- Frieser, Karl-Heinz: Blitzkrieg Legend ---** Notes on Accuracy & “Methodology” **--- Main source for information is Frieser (see sources). #BattleofFrance #haltorder #dunkirk
