Battle of Neuville - WW2 Operation

[Sgt (Ret) DelPercio]

 

Battle of Neuville

Saturday, May 19th @ 2000 EST

 

 

 

On June 6, 1944, Neuville-au-Plain was one objective of the 505th Infantry Regiment, 82nd Airborne Division of the United States Army in the invasion of Normandy. After capturing the commune early in the day, just 42 men of Company H were left to defend it. A much larger German force, consisting mainly of the 1058th Grenadier Regiment of the 91st Infantry Division, counterattacked and half of the defenders were killed or wounded in a heavy 8 hour battle. Eventually two of the American defenders, Sergeant Robert Niland and Corporal James Kelly, volunteered to remain behind. They held the German force off long enough for the rest to escape before both were killed.

 

Our mission will be based off the initial attack of Neuville. Below is one airborne squad, as well as two Sherman Tanks.

If need be, another squad/tank can be added.
