MAN AGAINST MAN
DESPERATE INDIVIDUAL COMBATS. IN MOUNTAIN CAMPAIGN. (Received This Day, 12.15 p.m.) LONDON, December 5. Describing the Allied success in the Mount Camino area, a Reuter correspondent with the Fifth Army adds that there remains a small force of Germans on the 3,000 foot Monastery Hill, facing death or surrender. The Allied breach of the German winter line defences in the Mount Camino area has been one of the toughest jobs of this campaign. The British and Americans have beep, conducting a “man against man’” struggle with the Germans. The mountains and the weather have reduced the offensive to one of desperate individual combat. The Americans west of Filignano, in the north Venafro area, repulsed vicious German counter-attacks. Rain on the Fifth Army front has kept down air support to a minimum.
