The Night Terrors

The third battle of Dubno will fought in total darkness with less than 50 meters of visibility. It is quite apparent that this is a totally unsuitable weather for the deployment of mechanized arm. I have made sure that the forward positions are manned but I have left substantial amounts of forces in the rear areas as much as possible to be proof against attempts by McEwan to breach my line of defense. ( NB. Ironically, same problem was experienced by Rommel for the defense of the Atlantic wall, if one locates his reserves too close to the line he maybe outmaneouvred, if they are too far, they wont be able to act fast enough )

 

It brings pleasure to me to say that we have received several of the new heavy tanks destroyers  as well the remainder of the Romanian assault gun company armed with the German 75L48 gun. Also arriving tonight the mountain infantry bn which will bring our total number of infantry forces to a number of well ... the wall have ears ....

 

But all in all, I am really worried about this night battle with an enemy like McEwan, u can never know where and where he will appear.

 

I am sure that the Germans will feel the full strength of our forces once the battle starts.
