August 6, 1944*
Vire*
*
Sadly, the 2nd Armoured Division is no longer attached to us. The higher ups have (not unreasonably) concluded that this hedgerow hell is no tank country.
However, before they were withdrawn they managed to capture hill 219, overlooking the small city of Vire.
This gives us a perfect staging area for our attack.
We will attack in the evening.

*
*
Objectives: Deploy your force on Hill 219. Then advance into the city and capture the vital crossroads and other strongpoints.*
*
Enemy: The enemy force defending the city consists of what is left of the 353rd Infanterie and 3rd Fallschirmjaeger divisions.
*
*
Move quickly. If you have to bypass strongpoints to get to the crossroads, do so.
