Overview:

With orders to break up any German assault before it could reach Cassel, D Company, 4th Battalion, Oxford & Buckinghamshire Light Infantry (Ox & Bucks) under command of Captain Charles Clustom, occupied the village of Bavinchove, located 2 miles southwest of Cassel. The Ox & Bucks’ mission was simple – to hold the town “at all cost”. Starting just before dawn on 27 May, German bombers, artillery, and mortars started pounded nearby Cassel, heralding an all-out offensive on the town. The Germans main tank and infantry assaults were directed against the south and southeast sides of the British line. D Company, located to the southwest of Cassel, was in the thick of the action and it gallantly staved off wave after wave of German assaults.

By Turn 3, the British were down a single good order 2-2-8 and a broken 8-1 and 2-4-7. But then the tide of war shifted. The AT Gun shocked one tank, which then went unconfirmed kill and then killed. The British reserves advanced into Close Combat with the other tank and eventually immobilized it and locked a squad in Melee. With that the Germans did not have enough points to exit and a miracle British win.
