The story
The attack was launched on April 30th northeast and southeast of Waldmünchen, and met stubborn resistance consisting of enemy small arms, artillery and armor.
The dense woods made progress double difficult.
On the following day the attack was continued, but still the almost impenetrable forests and the constant sniper fire made movement hazardous and difficult at best.
