アシカ作戦
Colonel ("Oberst") Hoffmeister, as commander of Infantry Regiment 21 of the German 17th Infantry Division, was scheduled to link up with a 131-man "Brandenburger" commando team during Operation Sea Lion ("Unternehmen Seelöwe") and push up the coast to Dover. Hoffmeister's division was to be part of the German 16th Army's area of operations. Operation Sea Lion was to have been launched in 1940 after the Fall of France, but it was abandoned in September of that same year.
