Lieutenant Charles Henkart has been reported to the local Belgium Police and there is an arrest warrant out for a hit and run incident in Le Cateau on the 26th Aug 1914, in addition he was not displaying a number plate or an L plate to show he was a novice driver, I expect him to serve time in Chokey.
How the Henkart failed to see my men from 2 Zug, 26th (1st Magdeburg) Infanterie Regiment 'Prince Leopold von Anhalt-Dessau' I don't understand, they were making enough noise, firing their guns and shouting Tommy go home, he was either drunk or it was a deliberate act of unprovoked violence, either way it's a very serious offence.
Well what can I say about the game, when Doug and I were invited to advance over open ground into the teeth of machine gun and rifle fire from entrenched infantry and to do it promptly, it didn't sound too enticing a prospect, but the privilege of playing on this gorgeous terrain outweighed the negatives.
As it turned out we were lucky in that the scenario called for us to be contesting every part of the town by turn 7, otherwise I don't think either of us would have attacked as boldly as we did but in retrospect that was probably the only way. Pluck and dash.
An excellent game played with a couple of top blokes.
Cheers
