   ++MISSION BRIEFING++
       "You are about to embark upon the Great Crusade, toward which we have striven these many months. The eyes of the world are upon you. The hope and prayers of liberty-loving people everywhere march with you."
    ―General Dwight D. Eisenhower's Order of the Day (1944)
    
   Mission Summary:
   On June 6th, 1944, Operation Neptune commenced. The mission: to liberate Western Europe from the German War Machine. Your platoon has been assigned to the Omaha sector of the beach landings, tasked with assaulting and securing this part of the German coastal defenses. Your objective extends inland to secure the town of Saint Laurent-sur-Mer and eliminate the artillery stationed there, which threatens not only your beach sector but also neighboring areas.
   Unfortunately, the tanks designated to assist in the beach landings are unable to approach due to strong waves. Your immediate task is to advance on foot, bypass the German barricades and razor wire obstructing the beach, and clear the galleries and fortifications covering the shoreline. Once this is accomplished, armored support will aid in your push inland to secure the town.
   The success of the Allied landings in this area hinges on your efforts. Nothing less than complete victory is acceptable...
   Objectives:
   
   1. Secure a landing Zone and Foothold on the beach.
   Reach the landing zone and disembark. Reach the shingle at the end of the beach. Use Bangalore torpedos to breach the razorwire barricade preventing movement off the beach.  
   
   2. Assault the German Coastal Fortifications and defences.
   Secure the fortifications below the cliff and the small town. Secure the fortifications atop the cliff. Destroy any Anti Air or anti ship emplacements found.
   3. Secure the town of Saint Laurent-sur-Mer and the Artillery Battery.
   Secure the Artillery Battery and the accompanying fortifications. Spike any Artillery found to prevent recapture. Secure the town and hold position on critical road junctures. Mission Notes:
   CIVILIANS: Civilians will not be present withing the Area of Operations.
   RRR: Delivered with each reinforcement wave.
   ASSET RRR: Withdraw from front line and ping Zeus.
   RESPAWNS: Zeus Discretion will aim for 10x minutes between death and respawn to ensure large reinforcement waves and per the theme.
   SPECIAL CRITERIA: KNGT will not begin the mission with their assets and will be operating as a standard infantry element until the beach is cleared.
