0210Hrs June 6th 1944
Recently Skirmishes with French Resistance became frequent, security measures were strengthened.
A few hours ago near a farm we heard flight of planes.
At present key elements of a staff of a division are scattered on several sites, one of which - a farm near railways.
Near farm house at the West of the road our patrol vehicle was destroyed, according to that we can think that enemy is close and most likely will try to play a speed card, cause in 20-25 minutes garrison parts which are in 40 km to the west of a farm will approach.
Your task:
1. Don't allow enemy to elemenate part of a staff of the 42nd division which is at farm.
2. Protect documents which are at the farm house (Touch farm house).
On map:
42nd Jager Div HQ element.
Jager platoon is attached to the Div HQ as security element, including 2 MG teams.
Also, your positions are reinforced with AA 88mm installations.
Support:
Not available.
In a type of insufficient information concerning HP of the opponent in this region, the exact quantity of HP of the enemy is unknown. Expect about infantry company with possible attachments as sniper and/or mortar teams.
Assign your forces near farm, block any possible approaches.
Looking like how they destroyed a patrol vehicle, part of enemy forces are already close, most likely at SW from railways.
Notes:
No reinforcements expected, so act by own efforts, keep count your people and bullets.
