Vidal lies unmoving on the rocks, a fellagha standing over him – the insurgent crouches down and grabs at the pistol on the radioman’s belt. A few meters away is Sgt. Duval, slashing at one fell with his combat knife as another struggles to regain his feet – a third lies in a heap on the ground. A wounded fellagha, bent over and grabbing at his stomach, is scrambling across the sand, away from the legionnaires ( fellagha in F6) – another prepares to fire from among the rocks at the bottom of the hill ( fellagha in lower left of F7). Three more are positioned among the rocks further east, and two others lurk in the gully to the north, rifles pointed at the legionnaires.Cpl. Lavareaux is followed by Marcel and Normand. Yelling, Marcel races toward the fellaghas, tossing a grenade as he advances – it tumbles wildly through the air, rebounds off a rock, and explodes, sending deadly shrapnel into one of the three insurgents among the rocks. Normand fires at the fell at the bottom of the hill and is rewarded to see the insurgent drop his rifle and clutch at his throat.Caught by surprise by the legionnaires’ charge, the fellaghas return fire. From the gully comes rifle fire – Normad hears a loud slap as a round passes, sees a puff of sand as another strikes near his feet. From the base of the hill a clattering machine pistol tears up the hillside around Cpl. Lavareaux, but the legionnaire remains on his feet as the three legionnaires close the distance. End of round 37.The three charging legionnaires can close with the fellaghas in the next round.</blockquote>
