Overview:

This 30th Division was to clear the road to St. Gilles for the armored thrust to follow and was also to establish roadblocks at the bridges across the Vire River south of St. Lo. As the 30th Division veered eastward and uncovered the road to St. Gilles, an armored column alerted to follow would drive south to foil German reinforcement from the southeast. General Hobbs thus mounted a two-pronged attack inside the horseshoe loop of the Vire River at St. Lo. Just across the Periers-St. Lo highway, the 30th Division’s troops met a roadblock built around Panzer Lehr Division’s three Mark V Panther tanks that where “strung out like a necklace of pearls”.
Attacker: American (Reinforced elements of 119th Infantry Regiment, 30th Infantry Division)
