Battle of Meijel, 27 October 1944: The German attack was to fall against the US 7th Armored
Division. Since the conclusion of Operation Constellation, 7th Armored had patrolled an
approximately thirty-five-kilometer front between Griendstveen and Hunsel with only limited
enemy contact. Discounting reports from the Dutch resistance that the enemy was massing for an
attack against Meijel, General Sylvester made no effort to strengthen the thinly spread elements of
87th Armored Reconnaissance Squadron which defended the village. Sylvester's lack of judgement
would once again cost his division dearly and once again British infantry would be required to bail
the Americans out...
