Overview:

The 1st Rifle Corps was heavily reinforced with tanks and assault guns for the initial attacks of Operation Bagration. They were ordered to attack in conjunction with adjacent corps and make deep penetrations to the Dvina River to cut off the German grouping in Vitebsk. The first trench line was taken on 22 June, but the main attack would not start until the next day. The attack was launched in overcast conditions, which hindered close air support. The 357th Rifle Division ran into Korps Detachment D, which was actually a division sized special unit, composed of various battalions and regiments thrown together. The Detachment was also reinforced with assault guns.
Attacker: Russian (Reinforced elements of 357th Rifle Division, 1st Rifle Corps, 43rd Army)
