On 13 Nov 1943, 1st Company Hermann Góring Parachute-Panzer Regiment had been sent to support the 94th lnfantry Division, and worked with the 267th Grenadier Regiment guarding the coast. 7th Company HG Parachute-Panzer Regiment was supporting the 274th Grenadier Regiment, and was engaged near Mintumo. 1st Company was given the mission of guarding the Santa-Infante-Mintumo Road. 7th Company tanks were already in the area and its lst platoon, under the command of Lieutenant Lentz, was ordered to move up in support of the infantry near the Mintumo Cemetery. The P7.Kpfw III tanks of lst Platoon and infantry of the Grenadiers successfully replused several attacks. Finally, the order came for the lst and 7th Companies, along with the 200th Grenadier Regiment, to counterattack.
