The Aussies, after a mismanaged first day's fight, got their act together and send the Italians streaming for the exit. With a well defended original line the Italians held their own for a while but the line was broken during the second day. Not, however, before the Aussies lost their shirt in frontal assaults. On the other hand, there was no other way to go. Once the line gave way, the units in the open were easy pickings.
