Suffering from increasing manpower shortages, the Germans raised some divisions from now useless Kriegsmarine personell. One of them, the 2. Marine-Grenadier-Division, was thrown into the fray against advancing British troops in Rethem, on the Aller river.

*
In order to defend the bridge, our naval infantry is concentrated in several strongpoints in and around the city of Rethem. The division uses the new Volksgrenadier type organization. We are supported by trainmounted 10.5cm Flak guns from Flakregiment 122(E). They are parked in front of the trainstation and have been camoflaged and reinforced with sandbags, so we cannot move them. Some Flakvierlings from the same units are also attached.

The enemy attack will probably be undertaken by the 53rd Welsh division, supported by some tanks. We have no tank support ourselves.
