Overview:
On September 7th, French units advanced into the Sarre Gap between RF’s of Metz and La Lauter towards the German industrial center at Sarrbrucken. French forces penetrated less then 10 kilometers when word came that French minister Gamelin informed the allied supreme war council that the situation in Poland did not justify further efforts in the Sarr. All French units were ordered to advance no further into Germany until the situation could be scrutinized. Nothing of any significance occurred on the Sarr front during the remainder of September while the bulk of French army units quietly and secretly slipped away, withdrawing back to pre-invasion positions. The German counter attack began on the morning of October 16th; clashing with the small French covering forces scattered along the front. One such encounter occurred just south of Schweigen Germany, where French mechanics rushed to repair several Renault tanks damaged during the earlier withdrawal.Attacker: German (Infanterie Division 6 with Armor Support)
Defender: French (11th d'Infanterie Regiment)
