    POINTE DU HOC, NORMANDY, 6 June 1944: The destroyer USS Satterlee observed enemy movements and swept the cliff-top with fire from all guns; nevertheless, scattered fire from flanking position caused casualties as the Rangers debarked on the heavily cratered beach. Colonel James Rudder, leading the three companies of Rangers, was one of the first ashore. Germans suddenly appeared on the cliff edge and began to harass the Rangers directly below with rifle fire and hand grenades. This threat was driven back by BAR gunners and another concentration of fire from the USS Satterlee.

    PETTY’S WAR includes portable rope launchers, DUKW with extension ladders provided by the London Fire Department...with Lewis MGs mounted. New 6-6-8 Ranger squads. LCAs, Shore Fire Control Party counters. Gun Bunker counters. Counters and new AFV Card style play aids for the destroyers USS Barton, USS Thompson, and HMS Talybont. New 8-page variant rulebook and a complete campaign game that takes you from landing, scaling the cliffs, discovering the German gun battery...through 'backs to the sea' survival of the ferocious German counter-attacks. The BAR Gunner counters are HERE, as they should be and said historical hero counters include one dedicated to William 'L-Rod' Petty, of course! And a counter for Lt. Colonel Rudder, naturally. If you are ready to step into the heart of 'The Longest Day' at Pointe du Hoc...relive one of the most gallant assaults in the annals of military history.
