Overview:
The final German push to crush the Allies lodgement planned to feature several diversionary assaults to mask the main push down from 'The Factory'. From dawn until dusk, the land and air battle raged at full fury, but the Germans had little to show for all the efforts expended. The deepest penetration occurred in the British 56th Division sector, where the 12th Sturm Regiment overran the 8th and 9th Royal Fusiliers. Meanwhile, two companies from the 10th Fallschirmjäger and Nembo Parachute Regiments overran the 7th Ox & Bucks Light Regiment and got as far as the lateral road south of the Moletta River before being wiped out by tanks of the 46th Royal Tank Regiment.Attacker: German/Italian (Elements 4th Fallschirmjäger Division; RSI 3rd Nembo Parachute Battalion)
Defender: British (Elements 7th Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry Regt, 56th Infantry Division; B Sqdn, 46th RTR)
