The Belgian trap.
May 10, 1940, it is the German attack. Hitler launches his "yellow plan".
The offensive began with spectacular actions, such as the airborne attack on Holland or the assault by gliders on the Belgian fortress of Eban-Emael, which focused the attention of the Allies.
They launch themselves in the Dyle maneuver... rushing into Belgium to the great satisfaction of the Germans...
