"See to it that the advance of the American tank formations will be delayed in front of Ecouche for some time. 
We are preparing some new fall back position near Argentan right now, so you may withdraw step by step, if the situation gets worse. 
Aaah, just one more thing: We just got word, that Rettinger's Kingtiger sustained engine damage near Sevrai. 
Please assist your comrades there and lead him into safety."

"Too bad Hauptmann Rettinger had to go up in flames inside his tank. This man had been a shining example for all of the german Panzerwaffe. Initially we had high hopes that you and your Zug would equally qualify, but after you failed to save your famous comrade in such a shameful way, these hopes surely died with him."

"In August 1944, the german forces at Falaise faced nearly complete encirclement by Allied troops. In order to get enough time for the preparation of the defense of Argentan, which was one of the main targets for American forces coming from the southwest, the Wehrmacht hastily erected a thin line of defense in front of the village of Ecouche, just west of city."
