Overview:
One of the tentative attempts to cross the Moselle River in eastern France was made south of Metz by the former forts of the Maginot Line. On the morning of the 8th September, a crossing was made under fire near the village of Dornot, and a bridgehead was established. In the afternoon, Companies F and G from the 2nd Battalion, 11th IR started to advance to take the ancient French fort of St Blaise, located in front of the bridgehead at the top of a wooded hill. Despite the confusion persistent in the bridgehead, the units made good progress against light opposition, but were stopped by the fortifications and by artillery barrages both friendly and enemy. At this moment German counterattacks from the north and south began, and the only chance to escape encirclement for the two companies was to fight their way back to the river.Attacker: American (Companies F and G, 2nd Battalion, 11th Infantry Regiment)
