- Crossing the Divina
-
- July 6th, 1941
-
- Two weeks in to the Barbarossa Campaign the 4th Panzer Army was moving
- eastward towards the Divina River. The men of the 1st Engineer Battalion
- of the 7th Panzer Division near the town of Ulla, began to make a river
- crossing across the Divina. As the engineers made their way, the Soviets
- launched a series of counter attacks to stop them. While the Soviets
- came close to destroying the bridgehead, German tactical skill saved the
- day.
