Overview:

With orders to break up any German assault before it could reach Cassel, D Company, 4th Battalion, Oxford & Buckinghamshire Light Infantry (Ox & Bucks) under command of Captain Charles Clustom, occupied the village of Bavinchove, located 2 miles southwest of Cassel. The Ox & Bucks’ mission was simple – to hold the town “at all cost”. Starting just before dawn on 27 May, German bombers, artillery, and mortars started pounded nearby Cassel, heralding an all-out offensive on the town. The Germans main tank and infantry assaults were directed against the south and southeast sides of the British line. D Company, located to the southwest of Cassel, was in the thick of the action and it gallantly staved off wave after wave of German assaults.

2025-11-22(A) Allen Evenson vs John Leo German winTight scenario - In the beginning it looked like a cake walk for the Germans but with the reinforcements and Brits Shocking one of the tanks with the ATR it came down to the wire. The Shocked tank went UK but was fine on Last German turn --- just in time to roll off. Otherwise, Last 2 german VP (a HS and a LDR) would have had to face murderous fire to exit on last turn. Roadblock, DCs, and FT ended up being pretty much non-issues thist time. Assault Engineer Smoke Grenades did help Germans cross some open ground without problems.
