 The 3rd battalion 116th RCT forced its way across the flats and up the bluff between WN @-@ 66 ( which defended the D @-@ 3 draw at Les Moulins ) , and WN @-@ 65 ( defending the E @-@ 1 draw ) . They advanced in small groups , supported by the heavy weapons of M / 116 , who were held at the base of the bluff . Progress was slowed by mines on the slopes of the bluff , but elements of all three rifle companies , as well as a stray section of G / 116 , had gained the top by 09 : 00 , causing the defenders at WN @-@ 62 to mistakenly report that both WN @-@ 65 and WN @-@ 66 had been taken .
