Although a battalion of the 143rd Infantry Regiment was able to get across the Gari on the south side of San Angelo and two companies of the 141st Infantry Regiment on the north side, they were isolated for most of the time and at no time was Allied armour able to get across the river, leaving them highly vulnerable to counter-attacking tanks and self-propelled guns of Generalleutnant Eberhard Rodt's 15th Panzergrenadier Division.
Iako je jedan bataljon 143. regimente uspio preći Rapido na južnoj strani San Angela, a 2 postrojbe 141. regimente na sjevernoj, bili su izolirani većinu vremena, a savezničke oklopne postrojbe nikad nisu bile u mogućnosti prijeći rijeku, što ih je ostavilo veoma ranjivim na protunapade tenkova i samohodnih topova 15. motorizirane divizije generala Eberharda Rodta.
