Overview:

Colonel Robert Sink and his unit, the five-oh-sinks, were trying to break the German hold on the town of St. Côme du Mont bewteen Carentan and St. Mere Eglise. To do this he manuevered several units into a line east of the town including the 1st Battalion of the 506th Parachite Infantry. Sink realized that the men in his unit had been under constant pressure with little to no rest for 2 days and that they needed assistance breaking into St. Côme du Mont. To help his dead tired mean, he arranged for as much help as he could find including an elaborate artillery barrage in an attempt to soften the way into town.

(VASL Log)		[This is a playing of the updated scenario from Exp Pack #1 2nd ed]

Germans in St. Come du Mont were surprised by the mortar barrage with American rounds falling effectually in several locations. Using the cover of orchards and hedgerows, two platoons of Americans rushed in to the edge of town to set up a base of fire. Fire from German positions in the center and north of the town keep the Americans pinned down in the orchards and forced some squads to retreat, but most of the Americans managed to advance to the edge of town to gain a foothold. The Germans then repositioned in preparation for a counterattack keeping the few routed Americans from rallying. The lead platoon of Americans at the edge of St. Come du Mont laid down suppressive fire as reinforcements moved up to solidify their foothold in town. Pockets of German resistance made the going tough for the Americans, but soon the paratroopers' firepower overwhelmed the German positions. As the Germans began to fall back, the Americans quickly followed not giving the Germans a chance to regroup. Ultimately, the Americans seized control of St. Come du Mont.
