Story:Adolf Hitler first outlined his plan for a decisive counteroffensive on the Western Front on 16 September 1944. This assault's goal was to pierce the thinly held lines of the U.S. First Army. Army Group B, commanded by Field Marshal Walter Model, cross the Meuse between Liege and Dinant, seize Antwerp and the western bank of the Scheldt Estuary.16 December 1944, a selective artillery bombardment began falling on forward positions of the 106th Division. This attack did not do much damage to troops or fortifications, but did cut up most of the telephone wires the American army used for communications. The Germans Marched West toward Malmedy.
U.S. Objectives:
• 82nd AB have advanced and met the German advance, they must hold the line and look for survivors from the 106th ID. 82nd AB must also look for weak spots in the German lines that could create a wedge in their defences.
• 106th ID have been cut off by the advancing German units. They must avoid capture and regroup with the nearest friendlies in order to hold off further advances.
German Objectives:
• Continue the advance West from St. Vith to Malmedy.Critical Timings:
