HISTORICAL NOTES
At daybreak the Dutch legionnairs notice a buildup of Soviet troops. About ten tanks with accompanying infantry leaves the woods opposite the Dutch positions and strats to advance. The 14th Kompanie rings the alarm. The AT-gun commanded by Mooymans hits the first tank. The second tank turns away directly, but the Dutch AT-gun turns around and shoots grenade after grenade. Again they hit a Soviet tank... Only when four Soviet tanks are burning the Soviets turn around and hide. Sooner or later the Soviet tanks have to to leave their positions again. The Dutchmen have to wait for just half an hour...
