Introduction
|
|
On the eastern flank of the Odessa perimeter, the Romanian V Corps opened a major assault with two infantry divisions, a cavalry brigade, and the remnants of their lone armored division, with the Germans providing artillery support for the first time. The Soviet defenders in this sector – three mixed regiments not yet collected into a division- faced overwhelming pressure, but with Odessa surrounded they had no option to retreat.
|
|
Conclusion
|
|
The much-vaunted German artillery proved surprisingly ineffective, and the Romanian cavalry had to engage the Soviet Marines in close-quarters fighting to make any headway. Eventually they did so at the cost of brutal casualties, and the Marines gave up the seaside town of Chebanka and its coastal defense positions.
