Overview:

At 10:20 Oberleutnant Geissler's four assault guns reached the outskirts of Riga. While the bulk of their Kampfgruppe was tied up, Geissler's Sturmgeschütze accompained by assault engineers raced through the city. The small force crossed Daugava on a pontoon bridge. Safely on the far side, the ground shook in two large explosions. Both the pontoon bridge and a railway bridge had been blown up, and the Germans watched as pieces of debris crashed into the surrounding terrain. The gamble had failed and they were cut off on the far shore.
Attacker: German (Pionier-Bataillon 21 and 3. Batterie, Sturmgeschütz-Abteilung 185)
Defender: Russian (5th NKVD Motorized Rifle Regiment, 22nd NKVD Motorized Rifle Division)
