Chafing at the bit from the operational area restrictions imposed by General Eisenhower, General Patton ordered General Ward and the 1st Armored Division to attack and capture the Hill 322 at Maknassy. Patton hoped to convince Eisenhower of the wisdom of his own plan of operation by securing Maknassy, and through Maknassy, Mezzouna. A heroic defensive effort by Rommel's personal bodyguard kept Hill 322 from falling despite three days of intense fighting and forced General Ward into a do or die situation. He must either take Hill 322 now or else lose the initiative to the Germans and face the ire of Patton.*
