Overview:
During six months of static mountain warfare around Cassino, the New Zealand Divisional Cavalry had found little use for their lumbering Staghound armored cars. This changed after Rome fell. In hot pursuit of the retreating enemy in the Liri valley, the Cavalry were often in the lead, receiving a liberator's welcome from the Italian population. This did not last long: at the end of July they ran into the outposts of the Gothic Line, defended by the hardened veterans and Bassotto (Dachshund) assault guns of 4. Fallschirmjäger-Division.Attacker: New Zealand (23 Battalion and A Squadron, Divisional Cavalry Regiment, 2nd New Zealand Division)
Defender: German (II. Bataillon, Fallschirmjäger-Regiment 12, 4. Fallschirmjäger-Division)
