On June 6th, 1944 the American 82nd Airborne Division landed in Normandy. Horribly scattered due to high winds, heavy flak, and inexperienced pilots, elements of the division move to capture the all important road bridges across the flooded Merderet River; one such crossing lies to the southwest of the town of Chef Du Pont.
To take this bridge, the US 507th regiment of the 82nd Airborne must eliminate the defending German 91st Air Landing Division.
