Overview:
The Germans lunged at the heavily fortified mountain strongholds in the Metaxas Line behind a fierce attack by the Luftwaffe. Huge bombs were dropped onto the heavy bunkers but failed to crack them open. Many of the bunkers in the scattered fortresses were simply hidden too well to be seen by the pilots. Following the Luftwaffe’s attacks there was a heavy barrage by the guns of Gebirgsjager Division 5. Cautiously, the well-trained engineers and mountaineers climbed the hills. The Greeks were still recovering from the shock of the artillery as the German officers watched their men approach the slopes standing up. This was not to last; the Greeks had prepared a nasty surprise for the Germans and soon the hillsides would be turned into a hail of lead and fear.Attacker: German (Reinforced elements of Bataillon II, Gebirgsjager Regiment 100, Gebirgsjager Division 5)
Defender: Greek (Elements of Istibei Garrison, 1st Greek Army)
