(Continued from page one)
While thesg actions were tak- ing place, others made a 12-day, BO-mile sweep in support of Brit- ish infantry formations from south of Catania around to Pater- no and northeast to the lava slopes on the eiist side of Mount Etna, pressing the German forces withdrawing from the Cetaniii line.
Supporkd Infantry
The unit did not fight any large- scale battles and was not in action as much as other units, but every squadron saw some fighting. Its work helped to speed up the Brit- ish infantry advances into the northeast tip of Sicily. The su port given the infantry proved sat slac- tory enough to bring praise from the bottle-tested 8th army.
The unit was landed a few days after the initial assault and went into the Catania line. where the British 5th and 50th divisions were hotly engaging the Germans around The Simeto River bridge south of Catania- For a while they held a section of the line on the hills fringing the plain. with tho role of guarding against threaten- e German armored attacks. These attacks failed to material- ize and the tanks were ordered to Join and support the British in- fiintry formation pressing the Germans south of Patmrno at the end of the line.
Officers included EJLC. Amy. Kentville, N3.
The unit awun northwest in n night move and inked with Brit- ish infantry. forming an armored pivot between the 5th and 50th divisions on the right iiuid the 51st Highland division on the left. with the 78th dlvison and the CB-Ilfldflh 1st division on the extreme left flank. The 51st division attacked Jnuthe direction of Paterno July 31, gaining valuable high ground, and then the British-Canadian in~ funtry and tank formation began to advance toward Paterno.
Squadrons In Action
A‘ troop commanded’ uwnieut; ' H. S.W. Alexander of Windsor. Ont, was leading the Lander squadron which was forward and first in action. One tank in the troop took a. German strong point tn a house at n. range of ZBOO-yards, blowing it to pieces with six high-explos- ive shells. Then it knocked out ii

It was evident the Germans were withdrawing from the Ca- tania-Paerno llue at this stage, partly duo to the British and Ca- nadian pressure on Adamo to the north. and the infantry went into Paterno on Aug. ti.
