| BULLENDORF | 1 | Operational convoys continued to move up steadily over the ELBE bridges. Bank control and crossing control, as organized for the assault, closed down. The Cl 9 bridge was attacked by aircraft and one driver in panic drove his truck into the river, wrecking the centre pontoon and putting the bridge out of action for three hours. Persistent shelling of the roads leading N. from the Cl 40 bridge set a petrol lorry and some ammunition on fire, blocking the main up route. A diversion was laid on, and traffic continued to flow smoothly. |
