I think we should merge the beachhead, bridgehead, and airhead articles into lodgement, since all are basically the same thing, just different subtypes differed by how they're conquered. Night Gyr 02:54, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
Two famous examples in which the attackers failed to expand their beachheads before the defending side could bring up reinforcements ...
Probably the attackers should be singular here, to match the singular defenders (or is the attack always plural, for reasons of morale?).
To my eye the plurality here resides exclusively in more than one example being given, unless the engagement itself has a plurality of attackers or a plurality of defenders (but isn't that nuance too complicated to express in rolled up form?) — MaxEnt 15:15, 23 May 2018 (UTC)
