This battle went off perfectly for the Americans, with almost no losses. The I&R platoons scouted out the German roadblock while the infantry battalion approached up the road. The German roadblock was weakened by artillery fire and harassing fire from two of the US infantry companies, until they finally fell back to reinforce the town. The American battalion split and assaulted the town from two sides, using their engineers to get the first toehold in the town. Once the second assault went in it was only a matter of time before the German resistance was reduced to isolated pockets, then eliminated. The US only lost two steps of HMGs in the whole battle, with the Germans wiped out.
