D+11: August 4, 1943*
Belval-Gare, France*
*
The Allies are at an important crossroads in our invasion. Your success at St. Aubin has opened the way to the St. Lo-Coutances road and rail line. This will effectively cut communications between the German forces in Normandy in two. We have information that two powerful new divisions are now facing the Seventh Army: The 1st SS Panzer Division and the 503rd Heavy Panzer detachment. These are straight from the Russian front and you can expect them to be of the very highest quality in equipment and men.*
*
Your orders are first to capture and hold the village of Garamond and the surrounding area, then continue on, bypass centers of resistance, and take up positions along the St. Lo-Coutances Road. You will have ample artillery and some air support, although not all of it will be available immediately.*

Game Notes: A Victory is required to advance you to the next battle.*
