September 18, 1944*
Brest*
*
Urban fighting is a hard and bloody business, and we will see a lot of it. 
The 116th Infantry will advance east into Brest and dislodge all German defenders. 
Days of air assault have turned the town into a hell of rubble, fire and smoke.

*
The 115th Regiment will advance to our south, taking the submarine pens and starting the attack on the harbour installations that are so vital for the Allied war effort.
We will clear the western part of Brest, a township called "Recouvrance" and then swing south into the docks.
*
*
Objectives: Capture the Submarine Pens, the docks and Recouvrance.*
*
Enemy: We will face what is left of the 5th Fallschirmjaeger Division. 
These are elite troops, dug in a fortified city.
The attack will not be easy. 
The submarine pens are probably defended by a scratch force of German naval personel.

*
You will receive support by several artillery batteries, as well as a battery of self propelled 105mm guns. 
You can choose additional support. Engineers or dozer tanks might be useful.
