Scenario 3
"Fanning Out"*
26th July, 1944*
CCA, 2nd Armored Division*
South-West of Saint Lo*
*
*
We continued our advance south and captured the village of Canisy. Resistance has become increasingly weak, with only scattered German troops still fighting.
*
*
It is now 1900 and light is starting to fade. To keep the offensive going, we need to fan out and send patrols to Saint-Martin and Saint-Samson. German nests of resistance need to be dealt with or bypassed.
*
*
Intelligence: The situation is unclear, but scattered troops, including tanks, from Panzer Lehr, 352. Infanterie, 275. Infanterie and 5. Fallschirmjaeger divisions are still in the area and will try to stop your advance. The Germans have lost control of their hinterland, so FFI partisans might also assist you in your advance.

*
Objectives: Check out and occupy the objective locations on your map and deal with any German force you encounter. *
