Round 1 - Breaking the Line

9 January, 1945

The 42nd, 63rd, and 70th Divisions had recently arrived in Marseilles from the United States after being cannibalized in the spring and summer of 1944 for replacements to be assigned to divisions currently in theater.  The intent was to leave these three divisions in reserve until July of 1945 when they could finish absorbing replacements for the troops previously stripped from the divisions and to complete the standard twelve-week large scale maneuver phase of training.  

When Patton's Third Army was redeployed to help in the fighting during the Battle of the Bulge, General Dever's Seventh Army was forced to cover parts of the front that the Third Army had previously held.  As a result of this shift the Seventh Army was forced to deploy the 42nd, 63rd, and 70th divisions into the front line, but because the divions were not ready to fight as fully formed formations yet the individual regiments of these divisions were parceled out to serve under the command of the various veteran divisions who were already in the line.

The 242nd Infantry Regiment of the 42nd Infantry Division has been assigned the task of defending Maginot Line fortifications in the areas north of the Hagenau Forest with the 1st Battalion being deployed east of the town of Hatten.  A German attack began in the pre dawn hours this morning.  A and B companies are defending Maginot Line positions located just to the east of town while C Company is being held in reserve in the town itself.


Round 2 -  Die Patrouille  

0735hrs 18 December 1944

Two days ago the Germans mounted a surprise attack, and have pushed swiftly westwards. Out forces at St Vith are in danger of being outflanked to the north and south.


Round 3 - Lanzerath Ridge

The early morning shelling finally stopped at 0700.  The artillery started before dawn and kept going for several hours. Most of the shells exploded in the tree tops.  Between that and the reinforced foxholes with overhead cover meant that the shelling caused no casualties.  However during the shelling, the forward telephone lines were severed. Now the only communication with the 394th regimental headquarters is by radio.  Lt Bouck, Private James, Sargent Slape and Corporal Creger went back into the village of Lanzerath to setup an observation post so they would know when the Germans arrived.  It did not take long to spot the lead elements of a German attack approaching the village.  The village observation post was abandoned right away – our fight will be along the ridge line. Shortly after returning to the platoon’s dug in positions, bringing along the artillery observer Lt. Springer and his men the Germans were seen in the town.
