Part 3 of 3 September 1944 - March 1945. On the eve of victory, Canada faces an internal crisis: acute shortage of men for overseas precipitates the conscript issue, threatening national unity and the King government. In Europe, Canadian divisons fight their way to the top of the Italian boot, then regroup for the final onslaught on Germany. They engage in the battles of Riechwald and Hochwald forest and finally cross the Siegfried Line.
