Fallschirmjäger of Kampfgruppe Markt Grun engaged a US Armoured Infantry column at a Normandy bridge crossing.
Initial HE fire from the M3 Stuart takes out the Fallschirmjäger Sniper team in the upper floor of a nearby house to stop them popping off shots at the advancing US infantry. However a Panzerfaust shot from an upper floor window blew the Stuart apart in retaliation an instant later.
The supporting US halftrack deposited a unit of infantry onto the bridge who then raced across it & into the lower floor of the Fallschirmjäger occupied house. There they were subjected to merciless fire from 2 Fallschirmjäger squads & their Officer, before being assaulted & wiped out from the floor above!
The Fallschirmjäger Recoilless 10.5 Rifle then took out the US Halftrack. The US replied with MMG fire from a cottage they occupied & advancing more infantry behind their burning vehicles towards the bridge, but small arms & mortar fire whittled down their numbers until their Officer called a retreat leaving the Fallschirmjäger in control of the bridge.
Victory for Kampfgruppe Markt Grun!
