Overview:

Although the airborne portion of the “Market-Garden” Operation centered around the seizure of vital bridges, heavy fighting also occurred over control of the highway leading to the bridges as well. While parts of the 82nd Airborne fought to gain control of the bridges at Nijmegen, other elements fought for control of the Kleve-Nijmegen highway. One of the major objectives in the control of this road was Hill 75.9, better known as “Devil’s Hill”. Even though German security troops operating in this area were few in number, when concentrated on the defense of a natural strongpoint, these troops put up strong resistance. Such was the case when Company A of the 508th Parachute Regiment moved out to take Devil’s Hill.
Attacker: American (Company A, 1st Battalion, 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 82nd Airborne Division)

2022-11-07(D) Ron Garcia vs Darryl M. German winLost all the foxholes by turn 3 but fell back and was able to rally on the backside of the hill crest. The reinforcements pushed towards the middle and we kept exchanging control of the center foxhole behind a woods hex. Taking shots at the lightly defended foxhole on the two hex northern side of the board resulted in a break and a rush by the Germans to that side to exploit it. Enough squads kept the Americans at bay and they came up one hex short of enough movement to try for a CC attempt. Good scenario because both sides get to attack and defend.
