Scenario 5
"Le Mesnil-Herman"*
27th July, 1944*
CCA, 2nd Armored Division*
South-West of Saint Lo*
*
*
As the first light illuminates our positions around the crossroads, we start to receive light German machine gun and sniper fire. It seems the village of Le Mesnil-Herman is held in some strength by remnants of various German divisions.
*
*
Intelligence: The Germans had planned a counter attack last night, but it never materialized. However, it seems like they reinforced their position at Le Mesnil-Herman in anticipation of this offensive. Rooting them out might prove tougher than expected.
*
*
Objectives: Attack and clear the village. After that, secure the road south for further exploitation. This is the last scenario of the campaign.*
