Town or entrenchment recovery bonus for leaders?

[Hugmenot]

A brief question: Rule 14.45 says to add one to the morale of UNITS attempting recovery in entrenchments and town hexes. Leaders are distinguished from units by definition but is there an exception in this case or do only the actual units in the hex et this bonus but not leaders?

Like Michael, I've always played that this modifier applies just as equally to Leaders and Kommissars as to any other type of unit.

It does not mean with 100% certainty that we're correct though as the term "Unit" is not defined.

Also, does this recovery bonus also apply to attacking enemy units that have begun an assault on a town hex or do only the defenders get the recovery bonus?

The bonus applies to all units in town that attempt recovery.
