Defense of the Reich: Niedlingen Fuel Depot and Startion

The Boys of Summer II: Defending the Reich
Anxious moments


The Fuel dump at Niedlingen: 2 Quad Vierling 20mm and two single 20mm Flak cannons arrive at the rail depot at Niedlingen to defend the meager fuel reserves against marauding Allied Typhoon aircraft.




A single Tiger II is there to defend the fuel dump from enemy ground forces. 


The Fuel dump has recently been topped up by the arrival of a train, carrying  fuel for the armoured vehicles






A SS K-rad Zug is also moving through the town on the way to the front, when the sound of vehicle engines is heard in the distance.





 The group strain to discern the origin and nature of the sound, anxiously scanning the horizon. 
Wer Da? Friend oder Feind? Who is there? Friend or Foe?
