When he came to the last, particularly well-defended bunker, he fell wounded in the entrance.

Knowing that his men would not be able to capture the position without heavy casualties he pulled the pin out of one of his grenades as he lay on the ground and deliberately blew himself up with the occupants of the bunker.
