RETREAT THROUGH THE RHONE VALLEY: Defensive Battles of the Nineteenth Army, August-September 1944
The Dragoon offensive landings were successful, despite German resistance. The following morning a German force was able to launch a counterattack, but by the end of the day they were ordered a retreat under cover of night. What ensued was a race to retreat to the Burgundian Gate, or Belfort Gap, before they were cut off by the advancing Allied troops. Maps.
