The Battle of Schmidt | Hell in the Hürtgen Forest | Part III

Hello, welcome to The AceDestroyer and welcome to the Hell in the Hürtgen series part III. In this part we will take a look at the 28th Infantry Division’s exploits on the 4th of November 1944. The previous day, the 112th Infantry Regiment had captured Schmidt, the division’s main objective. The 109th Infantry Regiment was still hopelessly bogged down in front of Hürtgen and the same can be said about the 110th which was still stuck at Simonskall. Today, we will take a look at what happened next. Enjoy! Don’t forget to like, subscribe and do leave a comment down below! Cheers!
