Overview:

With the Germans in firm control of the fighting in the west, Mussolini did not want to surrender the opportunity to take some easy ground and win valuable support. Along the southern Alpine front, the Italians massed for a frontal assault into the wall of east-facing fortifications. The French had given up the first few miles of useless hilltops along the border and defended along key crests. When the Italians finally crawled their way to the bunkers they were stopped cold. Along the coast, the Italians smashed into the built-up border town of Menton. The first two assaults brought heavy casualties as the Italians found all but one bridge over the San Luigi destroyed. The third and final assault was made with only small guns and mortars of the mountain artillery available for support.
Attacker: Italian (Elements of 15th Corps)
Defender: French (Reinforced elements of Alpine Fortress Garrison)
