Company of Heroes is set during World
War II where the player follows a fictional military unit, known as
Able Company, as they fight their way through some of the greatest
and bloodiest battles of World War II in the European theatre,
including the D-Day landings at Normandy.
The developers took quite a lot of
"creative liberties" with level design so that missions would fit
comfortably with the gameplay. For example, Able Company landed at
Omaha with the 29th Infantry Division, yet was inexplicably
transferred to the Advance from Utah Beach, with the 90th Infantry
Division.
Also, the members of Fox Company
(another company in the game) and Able Company referred to the other
companies as though they were the only Fox and Able Companies in the
US Army - in fact, "Able" and "Fox" Companies were present in every
Regiment in Normandy - as "Able" and "Fox" were Joint Army/Naval
Phonetic Code for "A" and "F"
