Citizen Soldiers US Infantry Forces In France
By Mike Haught
At their height, the battles for Normandy and Brittany included 14 American infantry divisions. These arrived between D-Day on 6 June 1944 through the end of August, just as the battles for northern France were coming to a close. Obviously there are too many divisions for each to be featured in D-Day: American, however as luck and American efficiency would have it, you can easily adapt the simple Rifle Company to field these divisions in Flames Of War.
Below are all of the US infantry divisions that played an important part in the Normandy fighting. We’ve included a brief history about the division, motivation and skill ratings, and what Formation and Command Cards to use, which represents that division between June and September 1944.
