SAINT DIE
St. Die, on the Meurthe River, is where America was named for Amerigo Vespucci. Just below center in this image is the Protestant Cathedral. In the upper right corner is the Church of St. Martin and the rail station. General Brooks, now head of VI Corps outlined three plans on November 10 in Grandvillers — all included a Meurthe River crossing by the 3rd Division — to move east past St. Die and capture Strasbourg on the Rhine River.
