(OKH) The call for infantry to Spontin came just as Major Svedala wrapped up in Bergen Op Zoom, a short but hard fight won by Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine showing up in force to support the troops on the ground. Several deployed at Spontin to flush out enemy forces entrenched in the Armybase as well as the depots. Sappers cleared one depot by placing charges on it and then the odd enemy infantry tried to infiltrate the town and that called for Scharfschutzes (Snipers) who kept the killing then enemy infantry who used the same paths in to the town over and over again. The operation was a success and the enemy High Command was unable to escalate the attack with an attack objective.
