It's Christmas-Eve. Peace at last!

Though i'm ordered for Taxiing-Service, but now that's more easy than usual.
Most time we've to drive high rank officers from their commandposts to Headquarter and vice versa.
And everybody is as relaxed as never before!

Only question left is what Mr. Ivan out there is thinking. Will he allowing us to have sum few chilly Christmas days at least?

Enemy presence
Own forces

Located west from our lines is the 129th Mot.-Rifle-Regiment. Supported by some reassigned T72 and T80 Tank-Platoons.

Due to the overall bad weather there's no enemy - or own - aircraft presence to expect.

Enemy Artillery-Forces seem to be reinforced. At least several prime movers with artillery were seen along the beach road.

Back to the memories



Our platoon was ordered to host the Christmas event. In case of enemy attack we're assigned to support Charlie-Platoon, who actually guards at the main front line.

Our platoon itself consists of 2 squads with M113, and 2 Abrams-MBT as support.

Charlie-Platton consists of 4 squads with regular infantry without IFV or APC.

Badly there still isn't artillery available under batallion's maintenance.

Back to the memories



Today you belong to Taxiing-Service.


Pick up Major Falkenburg with the hummer from the harbour, and drive back with him to the headquarter.


Our Recon-Units report that the Ivan is obviously planning to attack. Therefore the Christmas-Event will be cancelled. Return to your squad as fast as you can!


Position of Charlie-Platoon lies under heavy artillery fire. Neighbour units are concerned aswell. So it's our turn to quickly move to Charlie, elsewhere the position is probably lost!


Hold that position with all available ressources, and don't let the enemy slip through.
If the enemy could breakthrough sumwhere, then it doesn't looks very good for us!




Mission completed


The Charlie-Platoon is almost completely erased from the massive Soviet bombardment!

Only our fast and tough engagement is the reason we still could hold the Position.




Mission failed


It's Over!

The surprise was on Ivan's side. Partial groups of the enemy could advance to the East Coast, and put up a stubborn defense.

The following troops doing their best to let this place being hell on earth.

There's no hope! Without support and reinforcements, Kolgujev is lost place for us!
