Thats basically whatCharles Whiting says in 'The Last Assault'. And given the state of the SS at the tim where numbers weremade up with youngsters and guys from the Navy and Airforce who were unused to ground cobmat, it is believable.
Unfortunatly, most people think it happened as it did in the movie which could not be further from the truth.
