Introduction

The 100th Infantry Battalion was considered by many within the Army to be their toughest unit. Their performance in North Africa and Italy had earned so much respect that they were allowed to keep their unit designation when assigned to the 442nd Regimental Combat Team. Now they were in France, facing a veteran enemy again in forbidding terrain. As dawn slowly filtered through the heavy fog and rain they trudged off for yet another ugly job - taking Buemont from the Germans.

Conclusion

Adolf Hitler had seen enough retreating: he ordered his commanders to "meet any breakthrough with animmediate counterattack or be subject to court martial." The men in the line believed their Furher and the defense stiffened. Thus, despite the fact that the rifle companies of the 442nd Regimental Combat Team were 15 percent over-strength their attack faltered on the ridgeline just west of Buemont. The embattled defenders threw back the valiant Nisei.

Additional Notes

This scenario is an updated version of the "Trial at Buemont" scenario from the 1st edition of Go for Broke.
