Overview:

Following the successful capture of St. Lô, the 29th Infantry Division, flanked by the 35th and 2nd Infantry Divisions to the north and the 28th Infantry Division to the south, led the XIX Corps push south toward the town of Vire where a bridge crossed the Vire River. The 29th Division was faced by the shattered remnants of the German 352nd Infantry Division and the 2nd Panzer Division. During its 10 mile push from Tessysur-Vire (south of St. Lô), the 29th Infantry Division sustained nearly a thousand casualties. As the Division advanced astride the Pontfarcy-Vire road, the Germans reorganized their lines and assigned the 363rd Infantry Division to defend Vire and its approaches. The 115th Infantry regiment, 29th Infantry Division advanced southeast along, and just south, of the road. Shermans from the 747th Tank Battalion, 2nd Armored Division were assigned to the 115th Infantry Regiment to assist in the advance and clearance of the ever-present bocage fields.

2023-10-21(D) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best German winTough game for the Americans. My Germans managed to get a lot of breaks early, which slowed down the American advance. Then skulking reduced my losses to the huge American firepower. All four American tanks were knocked out. The Americans managed to cross the road, but by the end of Turn 4, they exceeded 35 CVP and that was game and a German victory.
