Overview:
This scenario features a combined arms American force attacking a dug in Japanese force of infantry and guns. Set on boards 22 and 49, the Americans receive a combined arms force including OBA, tanks, and a good amount of infantry. This scenario details the action for which Sgt. Donald Rudolph received his Medal of Honor. While giving first aid on the battlefield he noticed that his unit was pinned down by gun fire from a ditch. Crawling to the ditch, using his rifle and grenades to protect himself, he then killed three enemy soldiers concealed there. He then continued to work his way across open ground to a line of pillboxes that were also firing and immobilizing his company. He threw a grenade into the slit in the first of the pillboxes, and charged it and threw another grenade into the structure, killing the enemy machinegunners and so silencing their fire. After ordering several riflemen to cover his advance he proceeded to attack and neutralize 7 further pillboxes in quick succession. Later, when a tank attacked his platoon he advanced under covering fire, opened its hatch and dropped a white phosphorus grenade inside, killing the crew and negating its threat.Attacker: American (No more details)
