Wars Over By Christmas

[Von Earlmann]

Ardennes Dec 17th ,1944. There is confusion everywhere with reports of Tiger tanks all along the front. Col Rogers has lost control of 14th Cav group as they seem to have been scattered in all directions. He had a fear they were spred to thinly but all indications were this was a quiet sector. Reports of heavy fighting all along the front seem to indicate a major German push rather than a small spoiling attack. The good news is that the fog has lifted a little and most of the reports of tigers seem to be assault guns.
The bad news is the 106th Inf Div is getting reports of breakthrus in more than a few places along the front and has lost all contact with it's forward regiment.Gen Jones has finally released the divison reserves but no one seems to know exactly where to send them.
