Turn 28

Enemy resistence around objective G1 has ended. Paras destroyed the last enemy ATG and all enemy infantry has been destroyed. Two more flags turned on G1. The going is slow because most hexes are mined.

Two Sherman II tanks have been destroyed approaching Paras from the Southeast. They were engaged by the overwatch Tigers on hill 30-2. Only one more is seen at this point.

Scout East of hill 30-2 engaged by a sniper to the North and an FOO to the South. They are taking a beating.

A second Lee I tank approaching objective G1 from the South has been destroyed by Tigers on hill 30-1. The last one crested a rise and took fire from the Tigers and halted. The one enemy infantry section opened up on the paras at long range and inflicted a few casualties.

Maneuver Force continuing through the gap. The column shift South to give incoming artillery a wider berth.

Casualties

Friendly: Estimated 5 casualties.

Enemy: One Lee I tank and two Sherman II tanks destroyed, one 6pdr ATG, estimated 10 casualties.
