Tuck new Axis CinC

(January 14th - Oberkommando der Achsenmächte)
(OKA) In a ceremony attended by soldaten from all along the frontlines, Generalfeldmarschall Tuck recieved the promotion to Commander in Chief from retired Generalfeldmarschall Jammyman. When word on the turnover reached the smashed up french and british fronline across the western coast of France the last remaining Shermans stepped on it and headed out on the shores in an attempt to save themselves. Jammyman ended his CinC term with a win and the pressure to follow up with a win will now be on Tuck.

Excitements a Killer

(January 1st - Combats Stats & Records)
(ArFr) Sgt. Major Adnick, ArFr, reported from the battlefield: " A 232 had the infantry tents well-covered. So I found a space by some crates from which I could fire on the advancing sappers. I spied a light mortar and took out their position, allowing me room to advance. Circling through the bushes behind the enemy, I took them out one-by-one, as they were focused on our firebase."
