Operation Blackcock (14th - 26th January 1945) was an operation to clear German troops from the Roer Triangle, formed by the towns of Roermond and Sittard in the Netherlands and Heinsberg in Germany during the fighting on the Western Front in the Second World War.
Picture shows: Troops of the British Second Army advancing along a track of churned up snow north of Sittard during the new offensive. Some of the men are shown throwing themselves on the ground to avoid splinters from German mortar shells exploding nearby.
