The Italians tried an end run on this one, but the Indians beat them to the terrain with interior lines. Once the Eastern hill was taken, the Western hill, with two possible defense lines in it, loomed ahead. The Italians had to regroup before assaulting the Western hill, then slammed into it from the east around noon. Bitter fighting resulted in the Italians finally taking the Western Hill only 5 moves from the game end. Tough fight!
