Maleme Sector [Op.Merkur]

After the success in the Balkans, the OKH have decided that you are the proper person to manage this part of the paratrooper assault on the island of Kreta, occupied by the Commonwealth forces, mainly consisting of Australians and New Zealand troops. We can not allow the British to use this point of the Mediterraneam to threaten our future plans... in the other hand the island is an important point near to the Suez Kanal.

The high command want to suggest you the next points;

- You won't be able to use your core troops.
- Capture as soon as possible an airport, the JU-52 carrying the 5th Gerbisjager Division need to land before deploy them in the Kreta soil!.
- One Fj Engineer batallion will be in the ground when you arrive, don't allow the Allies to destroy their position in the north of the Suda Bay!.
