Overview:
The 5th South African Infantry Brigade was preparing to assault Point 178 just to its north, when the 15th Panzer Division, moving southwesterly, unexpectedly (from both sides’ point of view) smashed into its southern end, scattering most of its transport and supply vehicles. Largely ignoring the Brigade, the Germans rolled on for several more miles before disappearing into a low, marshy area. The South Africans redeployed for all-around defense and sat tensely in the open desert as enemy artillery began firing on them from both the north and southwest. An attack appeared imminent from either or both directions. . .Attacker: German (Bataillon I, Infanterie Regiment (mot) 115/Bataillon II, Panzer Regiment 8 and Panzerjägerabteilung 33)
Defender: South African (1st South African Irish Infantry Regiment, 3rd S.A. Antitank Battery, and 9th S.A. Field Battery with support from 22nd Armoured Brigade)
