German (SS)French
Overview:
With the almost near collapse of the French Army, it fell to individual units and their commanders to either fight or run. On one particular situation, French Senegalese units led by their officers fought a vicious rear guard action against elements of 3. SS-Aufklarung-Abteilung, 3. SS-Division “Totenkopf” at the little village of L'Arbresle. This action proved to be the sharpest fighting the SS had encountered since the end of the campaign in Flanders. And once again, the “Totenkopf” was up against a determined defender which consisted of Tirailleurs Senegalais supported by antitank guns and mortars. It would be another day of rooting out determined yet doomed French soldiers for the SS.Attacker: German (SS) (SS-Aufklarung-Abteilung, 3. SS-Division “Totenkopf”)
Defender: French (25ème Régiment de Tirailleurs Sénégalais)
