I like the fact that Armchair General is putting up the results sooner. How about the submissions? Who won? (Yes, I put in a submission) :-)

It is worth noting that many regard the key event in that engagement being the NZ troops “walking off the hill” that night when they could/should have been reinforced. Had the Kiwis stayed and reinforced, the other two company attacks would have been for naught. Such a successful defense might not have saved the island, but it certainly would have made the subsequent evacuation a more orderly and efficient operation.

The wounded count is astonishing, such an elite force wasted on a tough objective. I can’t imagine the horror of being in a glider that was going down while you have heavy gear on.
