On 16 April, General der Kavallerie Georg Stumme ordered the Servia position to be held down while 5. Panzer-Division pushed through Grevena to exploit gains made by Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler on the flank; the route was without roads and full of ravines, however, and though 1./KBtl 59 and 4./KBtl 59 reached the Aliakmon River at Lipsista, the bridge there was destroyed. A pontoon bridge was this time successfully built as the engineers were not under enemy fire. Here, 5. Panzer-Division engineers can be seen building a pontoon bridge on 23 April 1941.
