The US reinforcements arrived, forcing the Germans to either flee or fall casualty. Exact numbers arent specific, but the only Allied fatality was the german leader, with 4 injured, while the german side suffered significantly more casualties, and 100 soldiers were captured.

Strange battle and after reading a bit more about it it's even weirder. The force that rescued/relieved the castle had in it a young french-canadian journalist, Rene Levesque, who would go on to become Premier of Quebec, and the #1 figure in Quebec nationalism/separatism. He alone recognized the dispatch from the castle because it was a French Tennis Celebrity and presumably, he was a fan of French Tennis.

Gangle was never a member of the Nazi party, so were a majority of Germans. Not every member of the Nazi party even truly believed in its ideology, a good number of opportunities/jobs required membership in the party such as being an educator, scientist, and entrepreneur which is why Schindler helped the Jews because he was never a true a Nazi to begin with and only applied membership for business purposes.
