The British Army in North-west Europe 1944-45 The crew of a Cromwell Mk IV tank of 2nd Welsh Guards on the drive into Brussels, 3 September 1944. Despite sporadic resistance from the Royal Palace and Gestapo HQ, the city’s capture went smoothly, ‘the chief difficulty being to cope with the populace who were very effusive in their welcome’, as the Battalion’s war diary put it with typical understatement.
