The capture
Corporal Tharival reports from the battlefield: " As soon as my boots hit the deck I was off at a dead run towards the enemy held town of Achel. Along with about 6 other men, I ran to a nearby enemy held building in time to hear the angry bursts of SMG's, Rifles, and LMG's. The shots were frightening compared to the relative peaceful day we were having, but I never became lax in a firefight. My body immediately pressed against a wall and the other men did the same as we rounded the first corner and then the next...bodies lay everywhere, friendly and enemy. Nobody was left, they had all shot each other down. Quickly, without words, we realized we needed to defend the building from a counterattack. Capturing this building would lead to other captures and increase the morale of our troops. As we defended enemy troops ran inside, only to be cut down by our accurate fire. Now supported by our tanks from outside, no infantry could enter without being ripped apart by heavy machine guns. The enemy attack slowed to a stop and we remained to capture the bunker as well. Tanks supported by infantry, I learned, is a beautiful sight indeed."
