Son Operation


#
Son Town

This is your best chance to seriously delay XXX Corps.  Hold 
the bridge long enough to destroy it, and then withdraw and
wait for the counterattack.

The Americans have few avenues of approach to the town.  
Position your machine gun teams so that they have long, 
unobstructed lanes of fire.  You have an 8.8-cm FlaK gun at 
your disposal, but you have no vehicles with which to move
it.

This is a good first meeting with the Americans.  There will
be no surprises until their tanks arrive.  Fall back when you 
must.  This is not a critical map, but if you can delay the 
Allies here you will have a chance to set your charges on the
Son bridge so that you can blow it if you must.


#
Son Bridge

Stop the Allies here.  Blow the bridge if you must, but then 
you will have to retreat to the Son South area.  Your task is 
fairly simple, since you control most of the buildings and 
covering terrain.  You also have two 8.8-cm FlaK guns at your 
disposal. However, as before, these guns are immobile.

You hold the upper hand here.  Enjoy the conflict.  Should you
succeed in repulsing the Allies, do not press on to Son Town.
You must stay and defend the bridge while it still stands.


#
Son South

This is as good a place as any to launch a counterattack 
against the bridge at Son and try to blow it a second time.  
Conserve your forces to make sure you're strong enough to 
take the bridge. 

You will have a chance to counterattack on the 20th.  If you 
retreat from this battlefield after this date, your troops will 
be recalled and this operation canceled.
