Re: Operation Niwi 10/05/1940
Yes Jan
I'm more familiar with the defence of Bodange, because a long time ago I studied the attacks of 1st and 6th PzDs in May 40. And the stand of 5. Coy of Chasseurs Ardennais at Bodange ruined 1st PzD's timetable for 10.5. and the combat at Bodange was one of the hardest if not the hardest for the 1st Pz during the May - June 40 campaign. One plus for Germans of the Oper. Niwi was that before the 2nd Battalion lost contact to 5. Coy it ordered it to send its only A/T weapon, the T-13, to help to clear the rear areas. |
