ItalyGen Alexander, meeting with his commanders, proposes that the AAI (Allied Armies in Italy) advance through the Ljubljana gap into southern Germany. In the British 8th Army area, elements of the XIII Corps break into Chiusi after a hard battle, but a German counterattack isolates the troops. The 4th Division takes command of the sector in the center of the XIII Corps, between Vaiano and Lake Chiusi, relieving elements of the 78th Division. In the X Corps area, the King's Dragoon Guards gain a foothold on Monte Santa Croce. |
