Hello!
Does anybody here could kindly tell me exactly which German and Fascist units started the assault to seize Montefiorino on the 30th July 1944 against the Partisans of "Divisione Garibaldina Modena"? I know enough about the battle (from several Partisan sources), but I lack any exaustive description/identification of the German/Italian units attacking. I think General Messerle was in charge for the operation, but I could be wrong.
Also I would be sure about the use of infantry FTs and of a platoon of SPW 251/16 in this battle.
thank you in advance.
