Enemy Hornet, 11 o'clock, 1,500 yards.

Yeah, and then Hills responds, Gunner, traverse left, steady on, enemy tank, AP, 1,500 yards, fire when ready.

They see this first shot hits the tank and they can see the Panzer jolt into reverse and then it stalls.

And that makes them all laugh.

It's kind of excitement, but it's also kind of a sense of superiority.

Because they've got a crap driver who's so nervous by being hit that he's stalled the tank.

Then there's a pause, and their job is now done.

They've now got to consolidate that gain.

They've now got the farm, St.

Nicholas Farm.

They've got this line, so they're now well on the way.

And so the idea is that the next phase is,

And it's by now, I mean, this attack starts at 3.30.

It's now about...

5 o'clock, something like that, a little bit after 5 o'clock.

A squadron will now come through and finish it off.

And they're going to do the next stage.

But they've got to get there.

So they're coming down from their position on Hill 0.102 and behind the Bordeaux line.

They're coming down into the village.
