Overview:

As Lt. Col. Shanley prepared for a third day of defending Hill 30, Colonel Lindquist readied the battalion strength body of the 508 assembled at Chef du Pont for their move across the river, moving north to make the crossing at the La Fiere causeway. Meanwhile, on Hill 30, the Germans made yet another attempt to seize the position, this time with the help of four infantry howitzers pushed up covered approaches to the German front lines.
