German forces take up positions in Apenhoef.
I’ve never seen scout cars be so lucky or so effective. Its really quiet awesome.
They direct arty onto the 1035 2nd Bn.
US and Commonwealth forces prepare to enter the fray. Companies K,L,M and attached AT guns look for cover and move cautiously onto the map.
Im hoping these fireflies can make the difference.
Mortars manage to get some smoke out, and Company K makes the outskirts of the village and then needs to work up an assault to dislodge the Germans.
8th company /1035 take up positions and look for overwatch opportunities, while Pzr V’s and 75mm AT guns hold Apenhoef.
In the coming hour can the Allies clear a path and take Eerde? Will the German arty finally be brought to bear?
