 By dawn the brigade had reached Consandolo some northwest of Argenta, where German resistance stubbornly held until well into the afternoon.Meanwhile, a mobile force under the command of 2nd Armoured Brigade Headquarters comprising one infantry battalion, a tank regiment, a regiment of armoured personnel carriers and supporting self-propelled guns and assault engineers (the "Kangaroo Army") was brought forward and, bypassing Consonaldo, secured a bridgehead over the Fossa Benvignante north of the town.Advanced elements then pushed forward and before dark overran the artillery gun lines of 42nd "Jaeger" Division.
