What was the last siege of WW2?
Battle for Castle Itter
For his service defending the castle, Lee received the Distinguished Service Cross.[35]
Gangl died during the battle[34] from a rifle bullet while trying to move former French prime minister Reynaud out of harm's way[36] and was honored as an Austrian national hero,[37] and a street in Wörgl was named after him.[38][39] Popular accounts of the battle have dubbed it the strangest battle of World War II.[40][2] The battle was fought five days after Adolf Hitler had committed suicide[2] and only two days before the signing of Germany's unconditional surrender. It was also the only battle where Americans and Germans fought alongside one another during the war.[40]
