BEHIND THE BERESINA

By the 28th of June 1944, Army Group
Center's situation was almost hopeless.
Ninth Army had been smashed, Third Panzer
Army had one corps left out of three, and
the Fourth Army was retreating.  Fourth
Army's goal was to pull back behind the
Beresina river (near the town of
Beresino) and start a new defensive line.
Burning trucks and dead horses littered
the road to the bridge, as the Soviet Air
Force attacked it no less than 25 times
on the 28th.  The road stayed clogged as
the remnants of Fourth Army poured across
the bridge.

MISSION

Take your Fw190s and defend the critical
bridge across the Beresina River.  If the
bridge is destroyed, most of Fourth
Army's badly needed heavy equipment will
be lost, and the entire sector a loss.
The Russians can be expected to send
large numbers of planes against the
bridge.

NOTES

This is a day mission.
