Historical Background: 2nd Battalion/508 P.I.R.'s original mission of capturing or destroying the bridge at Pont L' Abbe was quickly scrubbed when it was learned that an entire battalion of the 1057th Grenadier Regt was in the area. Facing a Battalion (+) of the 1057th Grenadier Regt, Lt Col Shanley decided to pull his men back into a defensive perimeter around Hill 30 to await reinforcements. It was the Germans who would make the first move. Probing forward from Pont L' Abbe, a Grenadier Company made contact with one of Shanley's blocking elements. Hopefully Shanley could reinforce the defenders before they were overrun...
