| Introduction |
|---|
|
W11en darkness fell, 37th Army's energetic commander Lt. Gen Mikhail Sharokhin ordered that the offensive continue so as not to afford the Germans and Romanians any chance to reorganize their shattered divisions and bring up reinforcements. 244th Rifle Division had served as a flank guard during the first day's combat and seen little action. |
| Conclusion |
|---|
|
Sixth Guards Rifle Corps had hoped to begin the attack in the early evening, when the Germans were still discombobulated from the repeated defeats suffered during daylight. Instead it took several additional hours to bring the second echelon division to the front, allowing the Germans to dig in and re-organize. The Soviets, apparently not having recovered their mortar teams from the first echelon divisions, failed to eject the Germans from the hill and dug in at its foot to attempt another assault when the sun rose |
