Riley, Pvt. Ender, Pvt. Koopman, Pvt, Goldberg and Pvt. Glover. After several hours of patrolling the forest surrounding the American lines, the patrol commences the last point on their patrol. They are ambushed by a squad of Germans. After about a minute of exchanging fire, 3 German Tiger Tanks and 1 half track advance from the forest. The patrol starts to fall back, but Goldberg stays behind. A Tiger opens fire, killing Goldberg. Ender and Riley gets into Moody's jeep and start off out of the area. Snyder's, Koopman's and Glover's jeep is destroyed by a Tiger's cannon. Moody, Riley and Ender start off over the forest, encountering heavy resistance. As they approach a farmhouse which would lead to the line directly, they hit a 105mm gun emplacement with German infantry guarding it. Ender is shot in the arm by a soldier with a Gewehr 43. Moody eventually gets the jeep to the American line. Riley gets in a foxhole while Moody stays in the headquarters. Ender is treated by a medic named Private Coen.
