Hürtgen 1944 - America's Meat Grinder

[dexter]

The Battle of the Hürtgen Forest on the German-Belgian border in September to December 1944 is rightly remembered as 'The Meat Grinder', when US troops endured heavy casualties at the hands of defending German forces. It ended in a German victory, just before the Battle of Bulge got underway.

It wasn't a 'German victory'. Not at that stage of the war.

Just a very very costly Allied carryover.
