Midnight, June 6.  Allied paratroops land near Normandy in France, preparing the way for the Grand Invasion...

Major General Maxwell Taylor, commander of the 101st Airborne Division, landed all by himself in a field in France.  He searched for half an hour before he found another paratroop from the "Screaming Eagles," a private.  They embraced like long lost brothers.  Soon, Taylor had gotten together a company-sized unit of paratroops.  They advance toward a small French village. 

Hauptmann Adolf Schneider commanded the garrison of the small French town of Lesoy.  His force was made up of inexperienced troops, which would be replaced by veterans later in the month.  Schneider was a little worried about an Allied attack, but he trusted OKW in saying that the weather was too bad for an invasion.  That was going to change...

If you select the Allies, you will play as Maj Gen Taylor.  If you select the Axis, you will play as Hpt Schneider.
