Introduction |
---|
While other Austrian divisions had more often than not scored tactical victories during the early days of the campaign, they usually suffered so terribly in doing so that the Russians could break contact during the night and the Austrians couldn’t exploit their successes. The Edelweiss Division, however, kept track of the battered Russian 61st Infantry Division through the hours of darkness and returned the next morning to dish out more punishment. |
Conclusion |
---|
The Edelweiss Division reported taking another 24 cannon in this attack, which would bring the total to more than the 61st Infantry Division’s holdings. Whatever the actual total of trophies hauled back to Salzburg and Innsbruck, the Russian division had taken another crushing defeat and would not play a role again in the Battle of Komarów. |
