Rocket bombardment. US also loses three infantry, one
MG, one Mortar, a M16 and a 40mm AAA support stand. Germans
lose two infantry stands.
German Battle Report: The 77th Volksgrenadier Regiment attacked the center
sector of the American 28th Division at the same time
following on the heals of a heavy barrage of guns and
rockets from both division and corps batteries. The first
battalion advanced against the town of Hosingen supported
by the second battalion on its right and more distantly
by third battalion on the extreme left. Minor casualties
were sustained by the regiment in this action.
The division artillery control teams accurately called
in fire on the American positions and completely disrupted
their communications during the action.
The third battalion advance was severely delayed by
a failure of the catering corps to provide adequate supplies
of hot strudel for breakfast. This caused the battalion
to arrive almost two hours later into the action than
the rest of the regiment, and a stern note was delivered
to the army catering corps with regard to timely delivery
of rations prior to regimental combat operations.
