"I have no doubt that the Battle of Normandy was won on the beaches of Dieppe. For every man who died in Dieppe, at least 10 more were spared in Normandy in 1944." - Lord Louis Mountbatten

"Dieppe should occupy a place of it's own in the story of war. Casualties alone should not classify it as a failure. The sacrifice of the brave men who fell was not in vain." - Winston Churchill

"My impression of 'Jubilee' [Dieppe] is that the results fully justified the heavy cost" "[Dieppe] was a Canadian contribution of the greatest significance to final victory" - Winston Churchill
