During the evening, huge German Tiger tanks attached to Kampfgruppe Brinkmann made their debut on the scene. These were deployed to trouble positions in the north-eastern corner of the perimeter (Map Refs 24 to 26), and they proceeded to attack each building by firing into them at point blank range. It came as something as a surprise to all that the buildings still stood after the terrific structural damage that this inflicted upon them. The only position that had to be abandoned, however, was that held by the RAOC troops of the 1st (Airborne) Divisional Field Park (Map Ref 24).
German Major who spoke with Major Gough and informed him that he had fought in Stalingrad and that it was therefore obvious to him that the British paratroopers had a great deal of experience in street-fighting. Gough replied that they had never done it before, and that they'd be much better at it next time.)))
