Overview:
Troops of the BHC’s Marine division moved into and attacked the [3^rd ID] in the town of Saint Mere Eglise on November 26^th, 2005.  Led by 1Lt. Malarkey and 2Lt. Smokin Joe, BHC moved in quickly, utilizing smoke and covering fire to provide safe passage to key positions within the town.  Sgt. Mr.B led a squad through the towns graveyard providing cover for the main assault team and engaged the enemy with superior fire power.  BHC also utilized their C4 charges, and was able to knock out several Flak-Panzers, allowing them to get air support.  The [3^rd ID] were expecting a small unit to attack them, and were severely cut down by their underestimate.  Within an hour, the town of Saint Mere Eglise was controlled by BHC.

After switching sides in the scrim, BHC took on the defense of Carentan.  BHC’s primary goal was to protect the two Half-Tracks that were temporarily disabled in the town, awaiting inspection.  Many acts of bravery and heroism were shown by the soldiers of BHC in attempt to keep the vehicles intact.  The [3^rd ID] was able to destroy one of the two Half-Tracks, but after a hard and long fight finally retreated from the town.  Resulting in an overall BHC victory.

2Lt. Smokin Joe was awarded the Bronze star during the Carentan Defense.
