Marines.
You are the elite of the elite, the best of the best. From the naval base fortress of Macao in asia, to the azores in the atlantic. From the paradrop in south africa of 320,000 men, to the bloody fights in the swedish mountains.
Now you are gathered together to participate in the greatest honor in germany. France has been invaded by the british. They spread from normandy like the cochroaches they are. Should we stand here and do NOTHING??? NO!!! WE SHALL DRIVE THE BASTARDS FROM FRANCE!
Many of you are from Guderians drive down the boot, teaching the eyeties why they fear us. Others are veterans of taranto bay, where they eliminated our battleship force based in albania and got whacked by our carrier divisions in the area. Over 60 battleships now block the harbor in taranto!
Others are from the polish invasion led by rundsted. The ones who decimated the pathetic ranks of the weakling polish. they outnumbered us 10 to 1 in warsaw and had total air supremacy, but we still won! Then you might have been transfered to help out the 46 waffen SS divisions on the maginot line. We drove over them with nothing but infantry. But the french fought valiantly for the first time in their history in the rerun of verdun. The 3 battles for metz were fought bravely for both sides, but finally when they became encircled and we brought near a million men including our elite paratrooper army to bear they crumbled. Yet still it took 98 divisions to crush a mere 4 FRENCH divisions! That is the kind of foolishness we will not tolerate here.
The battle for the balkans was another disaster. Stopped at budapest, a paradrop saved the day. Then we were bogged down in yugoslavia where paratroopers had to drop on belgrade to stop a collapse of the front. Bullshit. We will have none of that here. As a Marine, you will never lose. We have the latest equipment from the technological breakthroughs that have been happening throughout germany since 1936.
It started when the bismarck class was introduced to the shipyards. 40 of these monsters were churned out, yet we have 8 left. Romania collapsed in record time though, 2 hours i beleive it was. Our allies in bulgaria and albania recieved large portions of the balkans for their valiant fighting there.
Then when we advanced on the undefended flank of france from italy, nationalist spain joined the allies to 'save' the world from us. Our advance was stalemated there, so belgium was invaded by our brand new paratrooper forces, after netherlands was subdued of course. Almost 500,000 paratroops crossed the border on land and started their long trek toward paris.
When the traitor petain cam to us with peace we denied and hanged the bastard. We would continue into spain, when portugal joined in a last ditch effort to save the world. Even the brits sent a BES in place of the late BEF which was decimated in cherbourg and shown no mercy. General Ironside headed this 4 division force which promtly got slaughtered in port by Rommel, The Angel from Hell, landing to secure la coruna and begin the invasion of portugal. None escaped.
Soon after while Gibraltar was being closed in on, Rommel was sent to the azores, and Von Leeb to portugese Africa with general hausser as support. All the while field marshal Buschs forces in africa were pushing the brits under Lieutenant General Montgomery back to El alamein. Then emergency sounded in benghazi, where 7 commonwealth and brit divs had landed under command of major general Gott. Busch were withdrawed from the front to contain this new front. It took him months and many defeats, but eventually 2 were detroyed from our prized stukas and the other 5 isolated and destroyed in barca.
Von Bock meanwhile had 4 elite divs meant for mountains, and a cavalry division to hold off 35 french divs and 1 armored brit div in tunisia. With our MED carrier force annihilated by battleships there was no way to bring reinforcemants there until the mass order of transports for the paras was complete. He took to mobile warfare without mobile divions and ran through the desert exhausting Fochs army. After a year of fighting General Model and his paras from the trenches of france dropped in at sfax and completed the encirclement of 6 divisions. The rest routed to algiers and were pursued by general dietrich, with feild Marshal Von Bock advancing throughout the desert and he maintained command of the theater. Soon Model took malta and cyprus.
The drops in south africa had yeilded results, annexing south africa and allowing portugal to be subjugated, while the belgians and french poured resources into the theater, they wer e overwhelmed piecemal. Soon turkey fell as well, and alexandria defeated from brave iraqi defenders egypt was overun and saudi arabia taken. the middle east was soon conquered and plans for persia and india were drawn up.
Yet that bring us to here, the british landing in dunkurque the low countries are threatened. We shall throw them back into the sea and take albion for ourselves!
