At 0700, the various commanders from the 2nd Battalion, 9th Colonial Infantry Division met at the Solliès-Pont railway station. The overall operational plan called for opening the road to La Farlede as soon as possible following the liberation of Solliès -Ville. 3rd Battallion, 6th Senegalese Regiment had accomplished this feat and now Group Daboval (comprised of elements of the Battalion Support Company and the 5th Company) was ordered to advance. It was to move along the right, in coordination with an adjoining battalion, while keeping its left flank securely against the Gapeau River. At 0930, the lead elements encountered stiffening German resistance from intense small arms fire. Just then, light tanks appeared from the north. Commandant Beaufort had decided 30 minutes earlier not to wait on the infantry advance before sending the tanks into battle.
