The attack went well, and all bridges were secured and held. British Forces counterattcked as expected, but it was broken up by well cordinated Arty strikes and my KG's actions and speed of which they adopted a defensive posture around the bridges.

Of note, the attack on Obj B, was made by a large Infantry Force, Armour only appeared on the flanks towards A & C Objectives.

Loses included 4 Panthers, 1 Tiger,& 2 PzJgr IV's. 1 Pz5 was to arty, 2 Pz5's and the Tiger were to those damn PIAT Teams, and 1 Pz5 to a Firefly, PzJgrs lost to unknown reasons possible arty or Inf attackd. Also 8 HT's were taken out by JABO's, One of which we may have shot down it was seen smoking heavily as it left the area. Our two Hubz did well, but were brought down by ground fire, shortly before the battle ended.

British ground forces suffered massive destruction, and retired on foot.

Comendations to my Recce and Pz Grens for jobs well done, and Iron Crosses (PH) to the Hubz pilots.

Recommend to Div, Hubz need armour to be more effective over a hostile battlefield.

Seems Div only sees our victory as a MV, so my KG won't see any new kit or troops. Repairs and Replacements will have to do for now.

Of course as always, "Where was the Luftwaffe?"
