With the SS Advancing on all fronts and the National Guard defenders, surrounded, and encircled. The National Guard fell back to the once beautiful Park of Central, After establishing Barricades all around the park stretching from to.
Many small skirmishes were done as the SS, attempted to try and over take the Barricade walls that surround the park, but neither was successful in doing so. As Night drew close the German Luftwaffe began a large aerial bombardment of the entire park and sorrounding blocks that were still under U.S Control. Despite the heavy damage inflicted on the Park, the defenses were known to still be intack, and strong enough to hold off the SS for at least 3 hours.
The SS Began to A Mass from the Occupied Norhern Sector of the Island, as well as the New Jersey side of the Hudson river, in order to launched a full scale attack on the Park's main line of defense, the Guns Sector. The U.S National Guad units already known that the Germans could attack from anywhere began to concentrate there defense from the Northern and Western walls, but the SS were known to be concentrating more on the Southern Defenses. This confusion would later lead to the destruction of the walls, and the SS's entry into Central Park.

With all defenses now breached and the National guard surrounded, on all sides. The United States decided to fight on until there last breath. Many of the National guard forces began to use Craters as fox holes, while some other began to use destroyed vehicles as there only means of cover close to the ruins of both the ancient castle of Belvedere, and the Delacorte Theater, Encampments were stretched in from center park to Bows Bridge, representing there final lines of defense.
By 11:04, the SS attempted to attack one Crater, but were driven back due to too much resistance in the fox hole, The SS than attempted to assault the ruins of Belvedere castle, but were repelled from RPG fire.
The Center line continued to hold for about 12 minutes, but the SS proved to be relentless. With Ammo running out, and the National Guards men exhausted around 11:22P.m The SS began to over run the Center park. By 11:39Pm The National guards forces in the park were whipped out, along with the entire city of New York, now under the control of Nazi Germany.
