means he is about to ship out. He hopes to take Amber with him.

B: Who is the Commander of the American Army

When the Cennan counterattack began, t1.e Third

and within two days went into action. This is how
the 26th Division made th~ quick move up north.

reinforcements before going back into the line.

was almost the same as if an army, facing an
enemy force along the New York-Connecticut
border, suddenly beard that a second enemy
force from Western Massachusetts and Vermont
was pouring through Albany toward the middle
or New York State. And then turned away from
its Connecticut front, picked up most of its
men, eqnipment, and supplies, and hit the road
for the north to smash the second enemy force
on ils southern flank. The Third Army did
this on a few hours' notice, despite the tremendous complications and work involved in
moving each of its divisions, reached its new
assembly areas less than 24 hours later and
went into action ,against the surprised Germans within the next two days.
The most spectacular role in the move was
that played by the Fourth Armored Division
which dashed to the aid of the beseiged 101st
Airborne Division at Bastogne. The story of
what happened during the same lime to tile 26th
Division, -which moved up on the Fourth Armored's right flank and tackled the tough job
of crossing the Sure River to the east of Bastogne without getting much of a play in the newspapers, is less dramatic but more typical. It

gives you some idea of what it was like for the
average-infantry outfit that was in on this deal
during the joyous ·Christmas season of 1944.
Nobody in the 26tl}. Division can get over the
way their part of the Third Army made its
move north from Metz. Probably no military
movement of such a large scale was ever ·carried out with more speed and less red tape.
The book was thrown out · of the window and
all the OCS rules about road discipline were
forgotten. Each outfit simply tried to get its
vehicles on the road as soon as possible and,
after they were on the road, to keep moving.
"And them roads was jammed,". one of the
truck drivers said. "Us and the Fourth Armored and God only knows how many other divisions. We were bumper to bumper all the way.
Good thing it was a cloudy day. If the Germans
ever had air out, they would have slaughtered
us."
Nothing was left behind. An outfit even
took a truckload of its German prisoners along
with it -because it didn't have time to dispose
of them through channels before· taking off.
One GI couldn't believe bis eyes when he saw
them rolling along in the column behind an
ammunition trailer and in front ·or a battery
of Long Toms.
·
,
«what are we doing?" he said. "Bringing
up replacements for the Jerries, too?"
The MPs were on the roads that day for only
one reason-to keep the v,ehicles from slowing
down. There was 110 stopping for anything.
The troops ate K-rations while they moved. ·
There were no urine calls. A rifleman in the
328th Infantry Regiment with the Gls had to
sit ' on the strap across the back of his two and
a half-ton truck and let go at 35 miles an hour.
The speed paid off. Despite the apparent
confusion, the move was completed in remarkable time. Later in the evening of the 19th,
after the chief of staff had received that first
warning phone call from corps, the division
learned that it was headed for the town of
Eischen, to the east of Arion, about 56 miles
away. The recon unit started out shortly after
midnight. The infantry regiments-the 101st,
the 104th, and the 328th-were all packed and
ready to -go at 0830 the next morning. There
were some delays due to the congestion of the
roads. For instance, all the units in the city
of Metz and to the south of it had to cross the
Moselle River in single file over only one
bridge; all the others had been destroyed.
There was a shell crater on the main highway
beyond the bridge which made another
bottleneck, One of the division 's infantry
columns was held up there for two hours and
did not finally get away from the Metz area
until 1030. It was late in t-he afternoon before
the last units-ordnance, quartermaster and the
headquarters section of the signal companyleft the city. But the whole division and all
its equipment was in Eischen and the surrounding countryside by 2300 that night.
"Everything c nsidered. it was on,e o f the
smoothest moves we ever m:ade," says Lt. Col.
Walter H. Lippincott of Philadelphia, Pa., the
division G-4. "And it should have been one of
the toughest. The men were settled and
relaxed in buildings. It is always harder and
slower to move from a city like that than it is
from a CP in the field. We were eating B-rations which had to be changed to combat
rations before we could start. And we had no
information about supply dumps ahead-we
had to assume they had been over-run by the
enemy and take everything with us. And after
we left Metz, we had to give the Fourth Armored priority on the main highway and take the
secondary .roads which were longer and narrower. A lot of the trucks that were assigned
to move us didn't arrive un til 0300 and 0400
in the morning. And, of course, we didn't
know how, when or where we were moving
until about 10 hours before the starting time."
Naturally the townspeople and the few U.S.
troops they found in the north were jittery
about the German counterattack and glad to
see the -division come. Lt. Col. John Cotter of
Lynn, Mass., arriving in Arion with the advance
party, found the city in the hands of a small,
nervous engineer out.fit whose CO assured him
. that everything was well protected.
"How about the bridges?" Lt. Col. Cotter
asked.
"Don't worry about the bridges," the engineer said. "They're well co,rered. We've got
two men on -each bridge."
Nobody knew how far a,~ay the Germans
were and ther,e were all kinds of rumors and
reports. The reconnaissance troops, supported
by TDs, went probing ahead to find out som
thing definite. The infantry dug into foxhol
in the freezing cold forests and wait,ed for them
to bring back the bad news.

bridges with TNT and to put more explosives
in the sides of trees which could be blown
down to block the roads in ca,<;,e of a retreat.
Maj. Gen. Paul called the division signal officer.
"If we don't get communication on this
meeting engagement," the general said, "I'll
grind you into the ground."
The infantrymen walked mor,e than 16 miles
that day before they met the Germans. Their
move up from Metz had evidently caught the
enemy a.hnost flat-footed. Three German divisions in that sector had been moving westward across Luxembourg toward the region
south of Bastogne. The three American divisions of the Third Army driving up to their
southern flank, the Fourth Armored, the 26th
and the 80th, smashed into them before they
had a chance to make a complete left face and
meet their new opposition head-on. They were
still wheeling around to the south on Dec. 22
when the First Battalion of the 328th Infantry
went into them and took the town of Hostert Jes
Folschette and the 104th Infantry advanced
through stubborn resistance to the high
ground south of Grosbous.
The Second and Third Battalions of the 328th
followed the First Battalion on the north toward Wahl and Grevels Bresil and then the regiment ran into real trouble. "There we were
on the road in column of battalions, " says Maj.
Albert Friedman of Bangor, Maine, who had
charge of the Second Battalion. "I went up
ahead and found the First Battalion with its
hands full of Jerries. Then I came back and
somehow managed to get our battalion to
make an about face and start back down the
road to Hostert. How the hell we turned around
those kids who had .been walking since God
knows when and all the vehicles and got them
going -back to Hostert without a mix-up, I don·t
know. If the Germans had ever broken
through on us while we were turning around,
there would have been a panic."
Hostert, the battalion set up a perimeter
A
defense and received word that it was to
become a part of a task force, to be called Task
T
Force Hamilton, under Lt. Col. Paul Hamilton
of San Antonio, Tex., with attached ack-ack,
engineer and TD units, and tanks from a tank
battalion. The Third Battalion was to go up
with the First Battalion straight north. Task
Force Hamilton was to tackle the dirtiest job
of all on the morning of Dec. 23. It was assigned
the mission of taking the town of Eschdorf,
which was loaded with German arm·o r, and
pushing on to cross the Sure River and establish a bridgehead for the rest of the division
to go on toward Wiltz,
"The boys hadn't had much rest or hot food
since WP. left Metz and they had walked about
20 miles," .Maj. Friedman said, "so I wanted
them to ride as long as they could. We sent
them out that morning riding on the tanks and
TDs."
Easy Company under Capt. Vaughn Swift o.f
Manzanola, Colo., went out in front north of
Grosbous and ran into strong German opposition on the high ground in front of Hierheck,
a cluster of houses at a crossroads before
Eschdorf. They were pinned down there for
the rest of the day. That night Capt. Swift
sent a squad over to the road at the left which
the Germans were using as a supply route. The
squad laid a hasty mine field and as soon as
they had finished a party of Germans came
down the road in a U.S. jeep and were blown
to pieces.
"Just goes to show that mines ought to be
issued regularly to the infantry," Maj. Friedman says. "But obody ever gets them except
the engin
't ask me why."
T
F Company, commanded
f Bt-rwick, Pa., replaced
' igh ground. When F
troops met a large
e reverse side of the slope,
yards away. The Germans,
aged in the snow with white capes,
opened a murderous rifle and automatic
weapon fire. Capt. Seely went back and _call~d
for a tank. He led it up the slope, walkmg m
front of it to guide it. The tank was demolished by an 88 flrint from a farmhouse at the
bottom of the' hill. "The concussion," said
Capt. Seely, "knocked me on my can."
He went back again and this time selected
a bazooka man, Pfc. Dominic Giovanazzo of
Ravenna, Ohio. Giovanazzo crawled up tl_le

notified that you have now been selected for training and service in the _ _ _

( Hour of reporting)
This local board will furnish transportation to an induction station of the service for which you have beert selected.
You will there be examined, and, if accepted for training and service, you will then be inducted into the stated branch of
the service.
Persons reporting to the induction station in some instances may be rejected for physical or other reasons. It is well
to keep this in mind in arranging your affairs, to prevent any undue hardship if you are rejected at the induction station.
If you are employed, you should advise your employer of this notice and of the possibility that you may not be accepted at
the induction station. Your employer can then be prepared to replace you if you are accepted, or to continue your
employment if you are rejected.
Willful failure to report promptly to this local board at the hour and on the day named in this notice is a violation of the
Selective Training and Service Act of 1940, as amended, and subjects the violator to fine and imprisonment.
If you are so far removed from your own local board that reporting in compliance with this order will be a serious
hardship and you desire to report to a local board in the area of which you are now located, go immediately to that local
board and make written request for transfer of your delivery for induction, taking this order with you.
