Good afternoon Commander,

I was right about our "Allies".  They aren't happy about our friendship force that is still near Berlin and in the eastern sector of Germany.  Now that Patton is dead, the Soviets have teamed up with German Communists to form a coalition against us. Somehow the Germans and their Soviet bed-mates have found or repaired an astounding amount of German equipment. 

The only thing that we can do is to finish all remaining German opposition and fight Konev and Zhukov too!  It's going to be a hard fight, but you're the man for the job.

Konev is driving his forces through Germany as we speak, and shattering what little front-line US opposition that is in his path.  I want you to move your forces to oppose him.  The Germans that have joined the Soviets are weak, but they have some very interesting equipment which they have repatriated from wherever possible within Germany.  

Konev's assault on our forces in Germany has been astoundingly successful.  His partial encirclement has netted 150,000 of our soldiers.  But I have confidence that if anyone can defeat him, it is you. I'll get you reinforcements where I can, but I'm not too confident.  Konev has really taken us by surprise, worse hen at the Battle of the Bulge.  But what is working for you is that they fear our military might.
