Introduction

While their 5th Battalion fought and died at Priyatne Svidanya, the two remaining battalions of 7th Marine Brigade dug in to hold the railway bridges over the Kacha River. Their capture would allow the Germans to bring their artillery within range of the Sevastopol Fortress’ outer perimeter defenses. To the German infantry’s horror, the Marines would be backed by the battleship guns emplaced in armored turrets on the heights outside the naval base to defend against just such an attack.

Conclusion

The remnants of 7th Marine Brigade dug in on the south bank of the Kacha, while stragglers attacked the Germans from the rear and the huge shells from Fort Maxim Gorkiy’s armored turrets roared overhead like freight trains. The Germans crossed the river, but only at the cost of heavy casualties as Soviet resistance stiffened in front of Sevastopol.
