28 September, 1944
[30 Kilometers East of Nancy, France] [ALLIED/AXIS/H2H] [HIS] [GD]
By the 28th of September, Manteuffel was on the ropes. His 11th Panzer Division was down to minimal offensive capability, although it still had a fairly strong infantry component. Still under pressure from above to eliminate the American bridgehead over the Moselle River, Manteuffel committed one last attack in the Arracourt area, this time against Hill 318. This time he assaulted the Americans at night in order to give his meager forces a chance at success. The attack drove the Americans off the hill but a quick counterattack gained it back. Through out the rest of the night and into the morning of the 29th, Hill 318 exchanged sides several times.
Finally in the late morning after the morning fog had burned away, American fighters appeared in the skies and wreaked havoc on the German forces, finally forcing Manteuffel to call off the attacks once and for all.
