Chapter 35: Combat Plan of the 24th Armored Grenadier Division (Extra for 2000 monthly tickets)

On the enemy side.

Major General Franz of the 24th Armored Grenadier Division arrived early in the morning at Karlinovka, where in the makeshift chapel set up by the army chaplain, he saw the body of Major General Rondorf, which had been laid out for a day and was somewhat swollen.

"Poor Rondorf," Franz said, looking up at Rondorf's face after a moment of silence, "I know he wanted to emulate the young Erwin who always charged at the forefront in the Carolingian Campaign, so he pushed the headquarters very close to the front line."

The 15th Armored Division Chief of Staff said, "Please accept my condolences, I heard that you and the division commander were classmates at the military academy."

"I was three grades above him," Franz made a curt nod, not continuing to discuss the past, instead shifting the conversation to the day's battle, "I received a report, have our troops been delayed by mines?"
