Right, we are close to encircling the city of Aachen. You are to spearhead a push east and take
the ground south-east of Wuerselen. Once you have your objectives secured the 'Big Red One' will
attack from the opposite direction, completing the encirclement. This operation depends heavily
on your ability to secure your given objectives.*

If possible, you are to take control of Wuerselen. If it proves to heavily defended you are to
bypass and secure the far objectives. Sealing off Aachen has top priority.**
