USA - 8th Army Arriving and Counteroffensive in France - 11 May to 25 May 1941

11 May 1941: That's where 8th Army is at the moment.
I start an offensive North of Vichy.
12 May 1941: It looks very promising. Maybe we can also capture Dijon.
13 May 1941: Looking good but we are still chronically short of Support Equipment.
14 May 1941: The German division has been pushed back.
15 May 1941: The Focus Escort Fighters has been completed and Hungary is challenging German leadership again.
I select Bureau of Aeronautics next.
Our Merchants shot down a German Torpedo Bomber!
16 May 1941: Hungary gets a slap from Germany.
Our offensive now includes Dijon.
18 May 1941: Get well soon.
We have captured Dijon but the Germans are counterattacking heavily. I order the 4th Armoured to support our forces there. We are also attacking S. of Dijon.
23 May 1941: We had to retreat from Dijon, an important rail hub, but we gained ground South of the city. Also my Destroyer and Submarine production.
I create a 4th Essex Class Aircraft Carrier and its MIO is again Newport News Shipbuilding.
I unlock the Air Doctrine Hunt and Destroy.
Also the Land Doctrine Elastic Defence
Another Small Lobbying Effort is needed.
We have an Ace!
25 May 1941: Three divisions of 8th Army have arrived in Toulon and I assign them to Army France.
Army France can still receive 3 more divisions.
