I i•
The first three days of the month were occupi8d ilith the offensive of the RegiL1ent ac~'OS,) the r.;ecina River and a west1'1iJxd encirclement of the town of r.;e cine itself. This action constituted another attempt on the part of the enenv to delay our forces as th""y pursued him on his retreat northward. As he had done 50 many times in the past,maximum use was made of the tOl';n of r.;ecina and the nat\lI1il obstacle of the r.;ecina River to form a stroIJ8 point from which to defend and mako a stand. On July 1 the Second Battalion attacked across the river, with one com- .part;/' of tanl'..8 and anathGr of tank destroyers in support. The ndssion was to first cut off Route No.68 and then turn west toward the coast, cutting off Highway No.I. On July 2 the attack was coordinated with that of the Third Battalion and the OD '. eration Vias carried out successfully despite eneIllY' counter-attacks, numerous ~ fields and cOllstantanti-tank an'~ sip g1m Iire.
Our artillery was able to find numerous profitable targets and in several instances were able to destroY viell dug-in, camouflaged pill boxes, and assist ed im:r~asurably in breaking up the attempts of the enell\Y to counter-attack our forces.
\lith the fall of the eriell\Y positions .above the Cecina River, the ~~R;4I\ellj; continued the pursuit northward along the. ~rnenian coast of Italy. l:al'\1 ~i' and incessant harrassing artillery fire were encOlliltered as the Regimen~ r~~, . 1.essly pushed northward after the r.etreat;tng. 16th IIR.eichSfUhern S3 DiV~~~.. ~.. I~·· A struggle for the capture of Rosignano opened on July :3 with the Third ~ . , L10ving :1, !:lattalions forward through Vada. There was evicence that the enlli . , nithdrawn in haste but prisoners llere not plentiful. . .' ,r .w Initial contact with the enell\Y soon demonstrated that the uermans 'lIIU~!" termined to make a firm stand for the tovm. 0nall arms fire developed m~ r erous and intense fire f~hts and the enell\Y, with excellent observatioq, 1 .' much use of sip guns, artillery and mortars. The R giment Vias committe<;j to9 1;.p, attack on the Rosignano position with the Third Battalion on the left and, the lfirst !:lattalion on the right. The main effort was made by the Third Bati:oaJJ,on which had the mission of capturing the tOl'm and the road leading north• .u:tt:lr much opposition from the enell\Y and difficulties with the terrain, the leacU,ng elements of the Third tsattalion enteFed the tOl'ffi successfully, with tanks lead ing the attack, but casualties nere severe and although surrounded by tl\e ei1,lilllG' during the night they organi~eu strong points and held their positions. TN-s preSSure was relieved on the mornulg of July 4 when a platoon from ilL" Coml"\W pushed arowld toward the left edge of the toMl and by 1800 .re held possel:\!\19l;l' '?~ half the tOl'IIl. The First Battalion, meeting much enelliY fire, was unable t9l\1<.~,e any grcatt~egree of proercss.
The battle for the tOlffi grew to a heavy engagement as the enell\Y, movi~ j,.n reinforcements, regrouped and counter-attacked. These counter-attacks, .':hil\l. ~ot involvilll: large nun1bers, nnde our progress slOl'I. Snipers were very much in <'111'1' idence. I I ,r (
A conniderable nunber of civilians had remained in the to'lln and the heavy f:i.£;htine made it impoosible for them to leave. LIany Vlere ldlled and VlO1.U1ded, and the Partisans who had been giving our I:Cn token aid in the f.i{;hting, removed as many as possible. At the tiz:a of the capture of the town it was feared that an epider.dc mieht bt-e:'k out as a result of the m.:llly dead littering the streets and Rosi,;nano \';as placed off limits to all troops except those \':ho were forced to re~lllin. .
Our attacks ,cere renewed, on the 11 and by late afternoon the enel1\1 was forced back. We captured rrisoners and inflictecl.heavy caGualties and seized some !:la.terial, including artillery pieces. The Germans, with their shortage or transportation, were forced to resort to the useeo! w.en to pull out some of their artillery. It was also discovered that the G rmans Vlore using wooden carts . brought into !taly from Russia. e,
On JuJy 11 Lt. General llark W. Clark, accompanied by ueneral Ryder, visited the Regim:mtal OP where General Clark paraonally p1ruled the silver eagle on the collar of the ahgimental Commander, Colonel Ashton H. Manhart, making him a full colonel. ueneral Clark also greeted members of the steff.
Foll~ling the capture of Rosignano the regiment cont.inued the attack north YTard with the First and Second Battalic-.s on the line, :the Third ;Ln reserve. The pace Vias slOlv because of the difficUlt mountain terrain, Combin~W;1.th mines. . machine and sip gun fire. The new misSion, was to capture and sea, ~ Legho!'l1. It was quite obvious that the capture of this great port was extre111Jl ilipo.-tant to future operations both in Italy and in the southern coast of lI'rance. A>;ain, the Partisans gave the Regiment assistance, acting as guides'. Roads Tlere found to be in a very bad condition and the engineers were unable to keep up l'lith thf. fOrlvard troops. After fighting nprtlmard throvgh Castelnuevo an!! to Gabbro it Vias reported by civilia.,s at the later tOl'm that the retiring Germans were S5 troops, about 16 to 20 years of age. They had four or five f>ia5l@s of artillery, four Dach.ine guns and the renairrler had rifles. L:ost of tJleG~rmans marched, having no vehicles to ride, their clothing was Vlorn out, the lnelt lIcre ahabby looking and had no food. They stole food from the civilians, It waa ;felt that this group was tired of the war and disorganized.
. On JuJy 13 the Regiment lost one of its finest ofi'iCeJ:'1l lVhan Captain Blomrnen cOJl!Ir.ander of the Cannon CompalV, was instantly killed by !II minli'l Wh:i+e on recon naissance to displace his guns forward. Long and lOj"lll s1Wv:;I.~e ~1lI<\ \leen rendered by Uaptain Blommen to the Regiment and marry of its past ~1\~C,~IlI\'1 IWd victories. were made possible by the excellent support given by his ll!lMo" ~'o1\1pany.
I The combined efforts of the First and, Second Battalions ezw,Pl,ed the ItJS,;lJ!i~nt. to sweep forward tOl'Tard the last range of mountains circling Legb,Clm. The ~d I BattaJ.ion, being committed throvgh the First and Second Battaliol1S l\I1d explo::l..\ ing the success of the.!!e two units, succeeded in capturing the h4;h dominting I hilla to the east of Ltghorn on JuJy lS and on the SaIOO day Compa:;y' "G" of thll Second J:lattalion moved"into what was knoon as the Popagana VecchiQ area where tlW were firedupon by the enC1lV. After exchanging some small arms fire j:.hey discov ered an estimated 200 of the enenw in the hills and draws. capta.in aretJinger and Lieutenant Brown ran to a disabled armored car and turned its nnchi11~ Sun and 37 IllCI anti-tank gun against the Germans ani at the same tine Lt. C"l. C'\lst,ille • ~ved·to a noarby house and directed artillery fire vlhich set the br,WJ\\ ablaze. 11 rry of the enemy were trapped, althovgh few jrisoners were taken. 'I · : - I f ( I c::::::: ...• An OP report said that ships were sighted leaving the harbor at Leghorn and an air mission "as sent out. It was later learned that the u~rmans were using these ships, which had been filled with concrete, to block the harbor. Ilumerous cxplosions, probab:q demolitions, were heard in the vicinity of the port. A rcport from Gorps said that there were definite signs that the eneqy was l'dthdrawing to the east in our sector, and General Ryder expresned the hope that the Regiment Vlould be able to occupy Leghorn soon. Lt. Ge~eral Mark W. Clark visited the CP on Ju:q 1$, conferring with uolol:'31 Llanhart. ' I Our patrols reached Leghorn the night of the '1$ and on the morning of the 19 colu.."U1S of vehicles carrying war correspondents, eneineers lIopQ many others I entered at the same tiJna as troops from the Second jjattalion l\I0Vl'l~ ;l.jl With the mission of garrisoning the southern part of the tOl'll1. TIle troorn~' f.l~rganized , i al:
After a short rcst of two ~s the Regiment moved fon1ard in the direction of Pisa. Three bridges on Hi,ghway No. 1 Vloro blCl\':Jl out. The roads were not mined and it VIas possible to !:love organic transportation up in. support of the t~QOJ?B. On Ju:q 22 a patrol from vompa.ny "G" was sent out to the a.i,rport south' o.t Pis&" and cume back from the tission ,lith a lierman natrol of six men captured intact". Another patrol did not meet With 8ny reSistance. 'rhe road north of the airport was secured for use as a line of departure for the assault on Pisa.
No great difficulty was experienced in securing the part of the city south of the Arno River. Ener.v artillery fire- was light and there was little hal'rass- , 1 ing small arms fire. With fe;1 casualties, the Regiment secured the soutilc,rn ba.Iili3 I of the Arno River and occupied the portion of Fisa south of the river. A new, heavy rocket weapon was used by the Germans at P:i.sa. The rocket CO.D.,'l be seen floating through the air but could not be heard. One of the rocl;et shells was sent to the 125 Artillery and it was described as about five inches in dia meter, twent;r inches long with a bulb-like nose about eight inches round. One type shell is concussion and the other incendiary.
On J~ 25 the Itegiment less the ~'irBt tlattalion began moving back to an assembly and rest area near Rosignano solvay. and vastitJ,lioncello, the First Bat talion remaining 011 the line throughout the remainder of the month. ~-- I (
