Kp . / SS - Panzergrenadierregiment 2 describes the impossible situation : " It is true that one fighter bomber we shot down landed on a Panzer and destroyed it . Most other Panzer and Schützenpanzer , however , fell victim to this intensive air bombardment , which lasted hours . Those Grenadiere still able to fight had spread themselves out to the left and right through the terrain ' s many hedges . They were happy to see that the bombers swarming like bees over our heads were finding more rewarding targets than individual men . I agreed with them . I heard that Peiper had suffered a heart attack . Diefenthal ( the commander of the III . / 2 ) lost his hearing when a bomb fell right next to him . Kuhlmann was unable to get the attack moving forward again . My brave messenger , Sturmmann Horst Reinicken , was killed as he tried to reach the command post of the Heer Panzerabteilung to which we were subordinated . He was trying to bring the Panzerabteilung the news that its commander and Adjutant lay dead not far from our hedge .

Historia Norwegiæ Historia Norwegiæ is a short Latin history of Norway written by an anonymous monk . The only extant manuscript , in the private possession of the Earl of Dalhousie and kept at Brechin Castle , Scotland , is fragmentary ; what we have of the " Historia " is found on folios 1r - 12r . The manuscript was once dated to the fifteenth century , but seems now to be from c . 1500x1510 ( Kunin and Phelpstead 2001 , x ) .

It is thought to have been the first one written , most probably sometime between 1160 and 1175 , though debate about this has been extensive and 1220 would be a more conservative terminus . It may have been composed somewhere in eastern Norway . The manuscript was published by Peter Andreas Munch in 1850 as " Symbolæ ad Historiam Antiquiorem Rerum Norwegicarum " . The standard edition was for many years that of Storm ( 1880 ) , and the first translation into English that of Kunin and Phelpstead ( 2001 ) .

The Italian Chief of the general staff general Luigi Cadorna had ordered to construct fortified defenses on the Monte Grappa summit to make the mountain an impregnable fortress . When the Austrian summer offensive of 1917 routed the Italians Cadorna ' s far - sightedness saved Italy from total defeat , as the Austrians with help from the German Army ' s Alpenkorps failed to take the mountains summit during the first battle of Monte Grappa from November 11 , 1917 to December 23 , 1917 . Thus the Italian front along the Piave river was stabilized and although the Austrians could see Venice from their positions they should never reach it . The second battle of Monte Grappa was part of the wider Austrian summer offensive of 1918 , which was the last offensive operation of the Austro – Hungarian Army in World War I . On October 24 , 1918 the final Italian offensive of the war began with an attack by 9 Italian divisions on the Austrian positions on Monte Grappa .
