The Great Crusade (US) #8 [1st Main]

  ++MISSION BRIEFING++

"Loose lips [might] sink ships."
—Wartime propaganda slogan.

 

The year is 1944 The Germans have been using the Air Field at Vinjesvingen in Occupied Norway to launch attacks on Allied shipping transiting the North Sea. Command has authorized a drop of US paratroopers into the area to neutralize the Air Field and remove the disruption to Allied shipping in the area. The Anti Air threat at the Air Field prevents a direct drop as such a drop will be conducted further to the north near FOB Abo. Paratroopers will secure vehicles from the FOB proceed south to the Air Field and neutralize it. Once the base has been secured all aircraft and infrastructure must be destroyed at which point nearby allied transports will move in to pickup the paratroops.
