Fist of Mars (Aftermath)

Lt Jenkins watched the German infantry survivors retreat into the distance.  He grimaced, they had  the Fist of Mars with them he had failed and yet his force had destroyed most of the German units. Vehicles approached the battle field. Major Whitaker got out of a jeep.  Lt Jenkins started walking over,  disappointed his first mission had been a failure.  Before he could get there 2 soldiers approached the Major. He recognised them as Bert and Ernie the PIAT team. As he got closer he heard them talking to the Major,
"Sir you never said nothing about weird vampire German officers!!  "
"Come on now Bert.  Vampires?" The Major didn't look like convinced.
"Sir begging your pardon, E' was pale as milk and had fangs.  He tried to bite poor Ernie! I smashed him over the noggin with old Martha here" he gestured to his PIAT,
"I swear I crushed his skull ! But he got right back up again! I won't lie we scarpered sharpish " the Major looked perturbed.
Lt Jenkins saluted the Major.
"Berts correct sir.  I saw the officer to I know I put a burst of my assault rifle into him and it did nothing. "
"Ok then thank you gentleman. What happened to this German? "
Bert tapped his PIAT
"Martha here took care of him. Hit him square in the chest left a nice hole. "  pride shone across both Bert and Ernies face.
"Good show!  We can take the body back and study it." Major Whitaker smiled. 
" We can't find it sir." Lt Jenkins interrupted.
"Can't find it?" Came the puzzled reply.
"We went back to check after the Germans had gone and found  just a pool of bloo....something but no corpse" Lt Jenkins said.
"Intriguing,  right you to well done now off you go get yourselves a brew." Major Whitaker said. Bert and Ernie saluted. They walked off towards the Sherman Firefly whose crew were stretching their legs.
Lt Jenkins could hear Bert and Ernie hurling insults at them.
"See that Tiger ?? Nah you buggers didn't lucky we were around! "

"Right Lieutenant,  obviously I couldn't say in front of the men but that creature you saw. Is one OberFuhrer Klingemann. Intel says Lange has been sending him medicine. It appears to have changed him drastically.  The boffins will need a report on him, what you saw anything will help. 
Right the Germans  got the Fist of Mars not good. " Major Whitaker said a seriousness in his voice.
"Sorry sir.  No excuse we failed. " Lt Jenkins said .
"A set back Jenkins indeed but don't be to hard on your self.  Those Nachtjager stumbling across it as soon as they arrived was pure bad luck. You smashed a significant German force here today. That Tiger" he pointed to the burning Tiger,
"Was the feared Lieselotte. Sgt Havocs' unit has lost many tanks to that rail gun. So some small victories.  Right let's get back to base and debrief.  Hopefully  intelligence will be able to find out what Lange is up to and what happened to that Klingeman fellow"
