«A critical moment came just as my forces reached the Channel. It was caused by a British counter-stroke southwards from Arras on 21 May. For a short time it was feared the panzer division would be cut off before the infantry divisions could come up to support them. None of the french counter-attacks carried the threat of this one.» - Von Rundstedt, Commander German Army Group "A"
