The Canadian First Division boldly attempts to assault the Gothic Line. Trusting their initial artillery bombardment to drive out the Germans, the Canadians plan to rush forward to capture the defences
The preliminary bombardment damages some of the German units but they survive enough to hold on. The Canadians rush the first line but are consistently thwarted from their objective by accurate German fire. Having lost all their armour support, the Canadians fall away. The Germans hold on for another day.
