4, 1944, 0700 hours:\By October, 1944,the American Army had ripped
two large holes in the Siegfried Line at Aachen and Roetgen.
The next step called for a limited flanking operation in the
Huertgen Forest. The 28th Division was ordered to carry out this
attack with the initial objective being the town of Schmidt.
Although the town fell easily to the divisional attack, a strong
German counterattack soon followed and routed the Schmidt defenders.
Moreover, the German attack continued and threatened to overrun
the next defense line located in the small village of Kommerscheidt.\\
AFTERMATH:\ As the German attack formed up in a wooded draw to
the south, two Shermans pulled up on a slight rise west of the
village and fired on the oncoming Panzers, scoring two quick
kills. Meanwhile, a Panther took up position in an orchard to
the east of the village but was met by a third Sherman which
set it ablaze after scaring the crew into abandoning the vehicle
with several HE direct hits. This stalled the attack on the left
and the Germans began to fall back. On the oppisite side of the
village two more German tanks had pinned down the defenders,
when P-47s from the 39th Squadron, 368th Bomb Group suddenly
appeared. They succeeded in imobilizing one tank while scaring
off the other. A bazooka team finished off the immobile tank
as the remainder of the German column retreated to Schmidt under
heavy artillery fire.\
