Near Gela, July 10th 1943: Despite delays and confusion, the Herman Goering Division's leaders did their best to make their counterattack before 0900 hours on the 10th. Unknown to them, however, an Italian force, Mobile Group E, was already ahead of the Germans and was about to launch an attack of its own. Oblivious to this, and close to five hours late, the HG was split into two KGs, one tank heavy, to attack from the west, the other infantry heavy, to attack from the east. It was touch and go for the US forces until naval gunfire support began to pour down on the Germans. [Size small]
