Introduction:

Hello to all my valued subscribers, we have yet another issue, #58 for your hobby enjoyment! In this new PDF issue we have four more action-packed scenarios, Carl Nogueira continues his review of the Desert in ASL and we’ll have previews of the Nor’easter tourney and the Albany event along with a review of the Tussle in the Tundra with all our usual features. Roll low and have fun with this latest Dispatch.-Vic

Sabres, Boots & Saddles: With Operation Dragoon underway and Task Force Butler pushing elements of the 11th Panzer Division up the Rhone Valley, the German recon elements counterattacked at Voiron. Which recon force wins?

Chaos in the Coconut Grove: The 4th Marine Division had landed on Saipan to moderate opposition but once they took the village of Charan Kanoa and moved toward the airfield, the resistance stiffened. Can the 25th Marines take the Coconut Grove?

Push to Pilastrino: Near Tobruk, the Aussies of the 6th Australian Division were pressing the Italian defenders in their push to reach Fort Pilastrino. First, they had to deal with dug-in tanks and a large counterattack. Can they hold them off and win the day?

Military “Intelligence”: The Germans were on the offense on the second day of Barbarossa, and elements of the 6th Panzer Division were stopped short of Rossinie by a Russian defensive position on the hill in front of the town. Can they blow the Russians off the hill?
