Overview:

Under the codename Operation Ladbroke, the British 1st Airlanding Brigade was to capture the Ponte Grande bridge spanning the Anapo River in eastern Sicily to allow for a quick march on Syracuse by the 5th Infantry Division. 144 gliders set off from Kairouan but only 54 actually landed in Sicily; the rest got lost or were shot down. A reduced force attacked the bridge before midnight and captured it. They removed the demolitions and prepared for the inevitable counterattack. The Italians advanced with armored cars and infantry. . .
Attacker: Italians (Army and Marine elements from the Piazza Marittima Augusta-Siracusa and mortar team)
Defender: British (1st Borderers and 2nd South Staffords)
