The remaining men moved closer all shaking there heads in reply, Toby looked at his blet. "Get thoses tracks!" He growled watching the tank move slowly. "Tom, return the favour...Watch my back!" He growled as the Snipers began shooting at the support troops who were trying to get to the germans who were already dead but being mostly blocked by the tank, Toby sighed quickly diving into a nearby bush he pulled 2 of his four grenades fron his belt, he didn't waste time, one more shell could take down ahlf of his men, he moved closer the rumble of the tank was heavy under him as he slid his arm back and the grenade slipped from his hand resting y the side of the barrel of the gun.

"Gran-!" The troop beside the tank called, it was too late, with a large bang the grenade let loose it's payload spraying the tank and the troops around in in flame for a few seconds, the tank carried on moving, Toby cursed himself as the second flung from his arm, the tank rolled carelessly over the hand bomb as it exploded beneath it, the crew jumped from the metal giant as the 3rd and fourth threatened to blow the whole thing to bits, Toby smiled rolling back ove rhte hill as his men cheered and the snipers took down the fleeing Jerry's.

tom emptied his clip into the fleeing jerries. as he reloaded he whooped. "that told 'em! nice one toby!" he said. he walked over to the remains of the roadblock and looked around. even though they had beaten pff the germans for now, the paras had taken heavy casualties. there was only around fifteen men left. he turned to toby. "if they keep attacking like this, then by the time the relief column arrives we'll all be dead." he said grimly.

"I got you..." He smiled quietly as he wiped the dirt from his face. "Just get the wounded into a safe secure area...And get what you can from the remains." He sighed quietly as he rubbed his shoulder with his hand and walked towards a wall, which he leaned on.

"yes sir" said tom, he saluted and ran over to the miniscule field hospital that had been set upin one of the houses next to the roadblock. after a few hours he returned to the para's HQ. he was covered in blood and sweat. he sat down next ot oen of his comrades, private richmond, who began talking; "well, do ya want the good news or the bad news?" richmond asked in his heavy irish accent. "is there any good news?" tom asked wearily. "yes actually, but i'll tell you the bad news first. the jerries are preparing one last push, and this time they're gonna be using the remains of panzer lehr and the leibstanbre. however, " he continued, "high command's preparin' an eacuation. we just gotta hold out for another two days 'til them boats arrive." he finished. "thank god for that." tom muttered.

tom washed his face in the river, he looked across the body of water that so many of his comrades had died for. deciding not to dwell in the open too long, he picked up his rifle and walked over to the blockade, it was time for patrol, but as he and his men walked through the ruined streets, all they could hear was the sound of tank tracks, the germans were coming...
