The Germans wasted several hours approaching the town from the South. Once set, they assaulted the town from two different avenues. The Americans repulsed them and the Germans retreated to regroup in the neighboring woods. The Germans reformed and set up a firing squad around the South side of the town. The Americans were pretty beat up by the combined fire and retreated to the center of town to regroup leaving the outskirts lightly defended. The Germans seized this opportunity to once again assault the town. Their initial assault was ineffective and the Americans quickly regrouped and fortified their defenses, once again, driving the Germans from the town. The battle ended in a stalemate.
