Overview:
The battle for Hürtgen Forest had been bitter, cold, and deadly. Every tree and shrub, every fold in the terrain concealed death. The area generally know as the Hürtgen Forest was not all forest. South of the divisional boundary between the 9th and 83rd Divisions lay both forest and plain. Dense forest gave way reluctantly to plowed fields and frequent clearings. Yet death was no less abundant. Previous down payments in blood had been paid by the Allied forces to secure decent road supply networks up to this point and another installment was due as the 83rd Division squarely faced the twin villages of Strass and Gey, both surrounded by flat fields but both also part of the greater road network needed to sustain the drive to finish the war. The 83rd Division commander ordered attacks on both villages at the same time each by one regiment with attached tanks.Attacker: American (Companies E and F, 2nd Battalion, 331st Regiment, 83rd Infantry Division)
Defender: German (Volksgrenadier-Division 353)
