Situation rapport

A combined land, sea and air assault will take place on the shores of occupied France. Baker company will be parachuted in small groups to take out of the Nazi’s support weapons which could threat our boys on the beaches. This includes artillery and AA-guns. Taking out any communications will be a big plus.

Enemy rear area is weak

The Wehrmacht has concentrated its units near the beaches. The rear area should be depleted of experienced troops.

The French Resistance and British Commandos

For several days, a special British Commando has been working inside of occupied France, preparing the French Resistance and providing them with weapons. The Resistance has the information you need about he enemy, they are the key to your success.
