Thanks for the AAR, I would hardly class this as breaking in combat. These guys were fighting an enemy well dug in in an easly defended position in amongst the cursed hedgerows.
Prosit!

Hmm, possibly but the story reads as a one sided combat report. The repeated referring to 88's and little else is a bit of a give away as it probably being less than objective. What's also interesting is the complete lack of reference as to who they were exactly fighting. How strong was the enemy? If I check the available german forces and their dispositions they weren't exactly fighting the cream of the wehrmacht (not even thinking about SS or fallschirmjager!) nor were there very many of them. The americans had a lot more men, a lot more firepower, air supremacy, etc and still did poorly.
