Introduction
|
The sun finally made an appearance, offering the hope of air support for the Nisei. Unbeknownst to the Americans as they resumed their efforts against Bois de Borement, the enemy was gathering for a counterattack. After repulsing two American assaults against the railroad embankment, at 0930 the Germans sprung their trap.
|
Conclusion
|
Enemy infantry with armor support slammed into the Nisei across the railroad embankment. Staff Sergeant Yoshimi Fujiwara earned the Distinguished Service Cross for breaking up the initial attack by destroying the lead assault gun with a bazooka. This sudden loss disheartened the Germans, who withdrew shortly thereafter. Meanwhile Hill D was discovered not to be secure. Under cover of darkness a company of grenadiers had infiltrated American lines and prepared attack positions. Once the attack kicked off, Sergeant Abraham Ohama of Company F, who had gone to aid a wounded soldier on the hill under a white flag, was killed and the four litter bearers accompanying him wounded by heavy machine gun fire which was observed by the entire company. The enraged men rose as one to avenge their friend and charged the enemy; when they were finished only seven Germans remained and were taken prisoner. During the this bloodbath Sergeant Robert T. Kuroda advanced fearlessly through the heavy enemy fire to engage and destroy the offending German machine gun nest with grenades and small arms fire. Unfortunately Kuroda lost his life in the attack, but his sacrifice saved the lives of many of his fellow soldiers, and for this his Distinguished Service Cross was eventually upgraded to the Medal of Honor.

Display Relevant AFV Rules
AFV Rules Pertaining to this Scenario's Order of Battle |
- Vulnerable to results on the Assault Combat Chart (7.25, 7.63, ACC), and may be attacked by Anti-Tank fire (11.2, DFT). Anti-Tank fire only affects the individual unit fired upon (7.62, 11.0).
- AFV's are activated by tank leaders (3.2, 3.3, 5.42, 6.8).
They may also be activated as part of an initial activating stack, but if activated in this way would need a tank
leader in order to carry out combat movement.
- AFV's do not block Direct Fire (10.1).
- Full-strength AFV's with "armor efficiency" may make two anti-tank (AT) fire attacks per turn
(either in their action segment or during opportunity fire) if they have AT fire values of 0 or more
(11.2).
- Each unit with an AT fire value of 2 or more may fire at targets at a distance of between 100% and 150% of its
printed AT range. It does so at half its AT fire value. (11.3)
- Efficient and non-efficient AFV's may conduct two opportunity fires per turn if using direct fire
(7.44, 7.64).
Units with both Direct and AT Fire values may use either type of fire in the same turn as their opportunity fire,
but not both (7.22, 13.0).
Units which can take opportunity fire twice per turn do not have to target the same unit both times (13.0).
- Demoralized AFV's are not required to flee from units that do not have AT fire values (14.3).
- Place a Wreck marker when an AFV is eliminated in a bridge or town hex (16.3).
- AFV's do not benefit from Entrenchments (16.42).
- AFV's may Dig In (16.2).
- Closed-top AFV's: Immune to M, M1 and M2 results on Direct and Bombardment Fire Tables. Do not take step losses from Direct or Bombardment Fire. If X or #X result on Fire Table, make M morale check instead (7.25, 7.41, 7.61, BT, DFT).
- Closed-top AFV's: Provide the +1 modifier on the Assault Table when combined with infantry. (Modifier only applies to Germans in all scenarios; Soviet Guards in scenarios taking place after 1942; Polish, US and Commonwealth in scenarios taking place after 1943.) (ACC)
- Assault Gun: if closed-top, provide the +1 Assault bonus, when applicable
