7 days ago American, British and Canadian troops landed on the beaches of Normandy. The Atlantik Wall did absolutely nothing to hold them and they have been pushing deeper into France ever since. For the past few days, we've been skirmishing with American Fallschirmäger around the town of Carentan. The town itself is tactically important; it is a crossroads and links to the Allied landing beaches. We must assume that this is a major objective for the American Fallschirmjäger.
Unfortunately for our Battalion, we have nothing in the shape of reserves. Thanks to constant air attacks from Allied Jabos and off-shore naval artillery fire, our Battalion is now reduced to around a Company and a half. We are expecting elements of the 17 SS Panzer to arrive by midafternoon tomorrow, so all we have to do is hold until we are relieved.
Good luck, Kameraden.

Weaponry within the mission will be restricted to WW2/Faction based weaponry and will be restricted per your chosen role. Tags for applicable roles are being enforced and will not be different from standard slotting. Squad Structure and PTLN structure have been changed to accommodate the theme and structure of operations in the Second World War. There may be some potentially offensive imagery present in the mission.
