Hosted by WW2WFAA, 1.Fallschirmjager Div and D company 504 PIR 82nd Airborne in association with Ground zero airsoft on their 50+ acre gaming facility!
The Battle of Hürtgen Forest was fought in an area of heavy forestation, of some 50 square miles in an area that begins about 5 miles south and east of Aachen, Germany and falls into a triangle outlined by Aachen, Düren and Monschau.
Although the battle did not officially end until February of 1945, the major part of the Battle of Hürtgen Forest was fought during the 3 wet, cold, miserable months of mid-September through mid-December 1944. The battle claimed 24,000 Americans; killed, missing, captured and wounded, plus another 9,000 who succumbed to trench foot, respiratory diseases and combat fatigue. German Dead and casualties are not known.
This will be a one day scenario that will highlight the early stages of the battle & small infantry tactics within the Hurtgenwald
