Carentan "German counter-attack" In the morning, the intensity of German artillery and mortar fire increased. The Germans launched a counterattack. One of the most bitter successes came through the garden and was for the Americans south and east of the farm. But the new positions of the machine gun can force the attackers to stop the attack. Gen. Anthony K. McAuliffe. An unexpected break before noon gave the Americans an opportunity to rebuild their left flank. Company C advanced from bridge #4 to a cabbage field between two and three hedges so they could shoot at the nearest hedge and road. Company A was right behind them. At noon, the units were informed by the leadership of the regiment about the request of the Germans for a truce, and the fire was stopped. Brigadier General Anthony C. McAuliffe, who led the 101st Airborne Division operation, opposed this as he himself was able to recover American losses. Major Douglas T. Davidson, a regimental surgeon, then went with two German envoys through enemy lines to ask the commander at Carentan for a break in the fire. However, the conversation was rejected, and Davidson returned to bridge No. 4 again. At this point, the German side opened fire with all available guns and weapons at an unprecedented intensity. Colonel Cole immediately asked the regimental leadership for permission to fire, which he did not receive, however, since Davidson had not yet returned. However, the Americans on the front line made their own decision and started firing back. Observing the German movements during the ceasefire, they were convinced that they served to strengthen the enemy positions and prepare for a heavy artillery attack. The renewed attack in Germany brought the Americans to their limits. The right flank had to retreat, but the location of the machine guns on the farm helped the others to hold their positions. The soldiers at Kolfeld on the left flank held their ground against repeated German attacks from the surrounding hedgerows and ditches. They came so close to the Americans that they could hear the sound of the locks as they reloaded. The enemy gave the American battalions no chance to return the wounded. Although the German artillery was rather weak, the mortars fired continuously. On the German side, a detachment of the regiment of the 6th paratrooper under the command of the commander of the Knight's Cross, Major Friedrich August Freiherr von der Heidt (17th SS Panzer Grenadier Division Götz von Berlichingen) took the brunt of the battle.
