Overview:

"A War of Corporals" - After the piercing of the front at Avranches, the Americans launched their divisions in all directions, notably in Brittany. Brest became the primary target of the US VII Corps. The city garrison was formidable. It consisted of 30,000 men stiffened by the parachutists of the 2nd Fallschirmjager Division, veterans of the Eastern Front. The assault by three divisions of VII Corps was launched on 25 August. Despite their numerical advantage, the Americans were dealt with harshly. The 23rd Infantry Regiment finally managed to reduce the exterior defenses by 8 September, but the paras were still holding firm. It would be necessary to engage in difficult street-fighting. It was a war of corporals according to General Robertson.
Attacker: American (23rd Infantry Regiment, 2nd Infantry Division "Indian Head")
Defender: German (7th Fallschirmjäger Regiment and elements of 266th Infantry Division)
