Not all of the anti-aircraft batteries of Flakregiment 122 were mounted on railway cars. Some heavy batteries were manned by the youths of Reichs Arbeit Dienst (RAD, Reichs Labour Service), who manned both 8.8cm FlaK37 and 10.5cm FlaK39 guns. The British had made substantial gains by nightfall but were stopped by determined Marine resistance at Gross Hauslingen about 6km south of their bridgehead. The next day several British infantry companies from the battalion engaged at Gross Hauslingen bypassed the Marines to attack the town of Altenwahlingen, on the opposite bank of the Aller from the now-captured town of Rethem.
Two companies of Marines were available to defend Altenwahlingen, supported by four 10.5cm Flak39 anti-aircraft guns. The ensuing fight began in pitch black, but British Wasp flame-throwers soon illuminated the battle as they burnt their way through the town, gradually forcing the Marines back.
