A foothold in PETSCHNEGI has now been established - clearing out the city is a task for infantry however...
Among your own troops you have also earned a new nickname - because your unit seems to draw many hard assignments you have unofficially started to become known as 'the Lucky One'.
The real Soviet assault on Petschenegi by elements of 160th Rifle Division got butchered on the ice. They never made it into the city, and they established no bridgehead...
...I'll post the next battle tomorrow, sorry for the delay - this time of year I tend to be busy on weekends..., haven't had time to finish it yet.
