There are problems with this scenario: it cannot be set-up using the standard terrain tiles of Memoir '44 and the selected extensions. There are too many terrains of one or more types. Please contact the author.

Historical Background:
At the end of June 1944, the battle for the capture of "Festung" Cherbourg was under way. On the east flank, the German strong point called "Osteck", under the command of Major Küppers, was facing the 4th US Infantry Division of General Barton. On the 27th of June, the US troops attacked with infantry and tanks. The US advance was soon stopped by the fierce resistance of the German defenders and by the fire of the heavy coastal battery "Hamburg" which had pointed one of its gun inland. Finally, General Barton got the surrender of Osteck by showing to Major Küppers a detailed map with all the German positions of Osteck. Küppers was then convinced that to continue the resistance was useless and gave his surrender.
