Overview:
A stalemate had settled around Heraklion. The Germans lacked the strength to take the town and airfield, but each day that passed saw their position improve as reinforcements trickled in. The Allies could do little more than their orders required: to hold the town and airfield until relieved. A platoon from the 2/4 Battalion AIF was dispatched to occupy the heights of Hill 296, known to the Australians as Apex Hill. For two days Lt. Kesteven and his men observed Germans movements. At dawn on the 26th it became clear that Apex had become untenable, as a group of Germans had moved between the hill and the village of Babali, a Black Watch outpost. After sending a last signal saying they would attempt to breakout, Kesteven led his men down the rocky slope.Attacker: Australian / British (Detached Platoons, 4th Battalion, 2nd Australian Imperial Force and elements of 2nd Battalion, Black Watch Regiment)
Defender: German (Elements of Bataillon III, 1st Fallschirmjäger Regiment)
