Dug in and supported by tanks, artillery and air support, the 5-18th was determined to blunt the Soviet’s assault.\\
"The red tide stops here," proclaimed 3rd Armored Division commander, Major-General William Thorndike to his grim-faced headquarters staff. "This is gonna be a tough fight, gentlemen. But I'm damned sure it's gonna be the last one they'll ever have..."
