Overview:
Although ill-suited for static defense, A Troop, 18th Mechanized Cavalry Squadron took over "hold in place" mission from 2nd Infantry Division in the "quiet" Losheim Gap. A Troop deployed two platoons to Roth. To fill forward bunkers and fighting positions, they stripped jeeps of machine guns and crews. Bombardment woke them at 0530 on the 16th. The 18th Volksgrenadier Division's mobile battalion attacked about one hour later.Attacker: German (18th Volksgrenadier Division)
Defender: American (A Troop, 18th Mechanized Cavalry Recon Squadron, 14th Mechanized Cavalry Group, 106th Infantry Division. Elements of 820th Tank Destroyer Battalion)
