Overview:
On 12 June, the German commander in Italy was informed that “Elba must be defended to the last man and the last cartridge”. On 14 June, German reinforcements began to arrive on Elba from Pianosa. The decision to reinforce Elba was not known to the Allies, who believed the naval activity between the island and the mainland was in fact an evacuation. Thus, when landed to secure the island they were expecting rear-area German troops but instead found veteran panzergrenadiers recently transferred from the Eastern Front.Attacker: Free French (9ème Coloniale)
Defender: German (Panzergrenadier Division "Hermann Göring")
