Battle was at such close quarters a German tank rammed Kling's M-4 from the rear. When CC A paused in Savigne l'Évêque, six German personnel carriers and a volkswagen rode headlong into the column. Engineers riddled surprised enemy from half-tracks. Steel-tipped forces of the 5th Armored now pointed north to Argentan.
The unit was activated shortly thereafter on 1 October 1941 at Fort Knox, Kentucky, as an element of the 5th Armored Division. During World War II, the 1st Battalion, 34th Armor Regiment was relieved from the 5th Armor Division, reorganized and re-designated as the 772nd Tank Battalion before being sent to Europe.
