Operation Clipper var en allieret offensiv i november 1944. Den blev ført af det britiske XXX Corps. Offensiven fandt sted fra den 10. november 1944 til den 31. januar 1945. Dens mål var at fjerne "Geilenkirchen Salient"; en frontfremspring, der stak ind i de allieredes frontlinje. Clipper var en del af den større Operation Queen, hvis mål var at få kontrol over Rur-dalen og Hürtgenwald. Men det ville tage noget tid at nå disse mål: vinteren 1944/45 var meget kold og meget våd. Vejret var som regel dårligt, og skyerne hang lavt, så de allierede ikke kunne udnytte deres omfattende luftoverlegenhed. Også kampvogne kunne næsten kun bevæge sig ad veje og var der truet af sprængladninger og PAK.
