Really quick people, what are we armed with? Oh, yeah, bolt-action rifles, pistols, and MAYBE a couple submachine guns. This is not enough, at all, to try and deal with an entrenched foe on the opposite side of a bridge - it's a way to create a disaster. Single file, maybe even one at a time, across the rope bridge - we don't have enough in weight to actually risk breaking the bridge so long as we do it intelligently.

Or we could attempt to throw ourselves at KMT defenses as we attempt to cross a bridge with no cover, no line of sight on the enemy, little in the way of heavier firepower, and right into the arms of one of our enemies.
