Overview:

SS-Obergruppenführer Wilhelm Bittrich was determined to encircle the British in Oosterbeek and prevent the Polish 1st Independent Parachute Brigade from reinforcing the British north of the Neder Rijn. At 0800, near Westerbouwing, Oberleutnant Artur Wossowski's men were mostly new recruits with little training but had the support of converted French flamethrowing tanks. Their objective was a steep hill with a café at its summit, overlooking the ferry crossing at Driel. The new recruits were about to meet up with the Red Devils, perhaps not the ideal opponents for their first fight. The battle was fierce and just when the Germans seemed to gain the upper hand, the Red Devils counterattacked.
Attacker: German (Wossowski Bataillon, Hermann-Göring Division Schule, and Panzer-Kompanie 224)
Defender: British (B Company, 1st Battalion, The Border Regiment, 1st Airlanding Brigade, 1st Airborne Division)

2026-06-19(D) nathan wegener vs Eric Gerstenberg British winThis was fun but the Germans have a lot to-do to meet the VC. They have a lot of squads and the FT tanks have to be effective to get there.
