    2 CIB/3-4--2 HQ. 2 Cdn Inf Bde 19 Jul 44

    _Cdn Inf Bde Intelligence Summary No. 1 Based on Information. up to 1400 hrs

    19 July 44

    1. EN:Blv:Y SITUATION

    From captured documents it has been learned that the enemy is retir-ing on S, GIULDU~O 5317 but intends to fight a firm delaying actio~ on all rds leading forvrerd and the terrain in the CERRETO - CUSANO PIETRAROIA areas lends itself particularly well to this type of fighting,

    The eneny has been hard pushed and RCDs are nowon line TELESE-s. SALVATORE. Crossings over R, VOL'IURNO ancl R. CALORE are under construction and should be ready by 1600 hrs 19 Jul 44. The line GUARDIA - CERRETO SANHITA is the next report line of RCD. It is expected that here the enemy :r:min force will be split with possibly the major part of his remaining strength covering highway 87 but he can not afford to overlook the threat of a left hook on our part ~P the CERRErO - SANNITA - PIETRAR:>IA - GUARDIAREGIA road. This road due to the mountainous type of country could be well defended by dam-ali tion parties and well placed MGs,

    Elements of 2 Bn 504 Tk Regt have been reported to be operating along the highway 87 aXis and _ ~s the right flank offers the only terrain suitable for tks it can be safely expected they \till continue to op-erate in that area.

    ' From the several PsW taken by the Div within the past week it is learned that our Airforoe has taken heavy toll of his supply colns and rations and amm~ni tion arrive only at irregular intervals. .Thi-s coupled with our superiority in arty and the adverse effect of cont-inued vli thd.rawal has : led to feeling of general discouragement throughout all ranks.

    2. ORDER OF BATTLE

    65 Inf Di v is believed to be disposed as follows : III/146 astritle secondar:Yi J;d before CASALDJNI in area 5793; II/146 believed in res, has NOT yet been -identified, I/146 is thought to be somewhere betw-een III Bn and s. LORENZO 5294. 147 Regt is held in reserve in the area of PONTELANDOLFO 5?98, III/14 5 located in the area of s. LOR~ ENZO with II/145 probably on its right astride the main rd GUARDIA - s. LUFO. I/145 is occupaying the high ground iiillilediately NORI'H of this rd.

    II/504 Tk Regt or elements of it are thought to be in'sp 65 Div while 165 Eng Bn is definitely known to be under comd,

    According to infm obtained 17 Jul 44 the 30 5 Inf Di v have been or-der-ed to delay any adv along rd CERRETO - PIETRAIDIA and wili be dis-posed as follows :- 577 Regt will occupy the high ground NE of CERRETO presuma~ly to deny us use of mule tracks between CERRETO.and MORGQ_JE, I/ 576 located in M. CIGNO area 4600 is believed to b~- thin on the ground and responsible also for the rd approach to CUSANO. II/576 is unlocated, ]aements of III/576 are believed to be working on def and demolitions in area R.s~ MARIA 4303.

    578 Regt is l(nown to have been drawn back 16 Jul to area GUARDIAllliJlt4". 4614 ' '

    30 .5 Inf Di v almos t destroyed dur.i ng the las.t week in May on the bounda:ry of FI.FrH and EIGHTH Arm~es losing some 900 Ps 11 from the 12 May to 12 J'un. Pulled out of the line in the middle of Jun to re-organize and re-equip, received reinforcements in that time and throlj\m into the line ag~in at the end of J'un.

From various PW sources the Div . streneth has been reduced to an est-imated 1000/1200 all arms. 2 Coy I/.576 has only 35 men and is comd by a S/Maj , 6 Coy II/ 576 has 63 men and one offi cerwhile 9 Coy III/ 577 is non-existent, 578 Regt is in a worse posn the remainder of III Bn having been split up to reinforce I and II Bns. Losses in A Tk guns have evidently been high as many personnel from 14 Ooy 578 are acting as infantry ..

    65 Inf Div, came into the line on the 17 .Jun and suffered heavy losses at the hands of 8 Ind Div. Received a few reinforcements at the end of Ju~ Has been fighting delaying actions since comndtment.
