SCHIRMECK

The 3rd Battalion of the 15th Regiment advanced through Schirmeck on November 25. The fallen soldiers are German defenders (note the MG-42 machine gun against the wall). The objective was Strasbourg south of the Saverne Gap. The 45th Division pressed to the northeast as the 3rd Division moved with the 100th and 103rd divisions from the Meurthe River.
