Overview:
Towards the latter part of Operation NORDWIND in the Alsace Province in eastern France, the Germans shifted their focus to the Rhine River. In response the inexperienced American 12th Armored Division had tried to take the initiative against the German bridgehead west of the Rhine near the towns of Herrlisheim and Offendorf. Despite some initial successes, the American tankers lost a number of vehicles and men. These losses increased as the experienced Germans from SS-Panzer-Division 10 "Frundsberg" deployed into the area. Not satisfied with inflicting damage on the Americans, the Germans sought to regain the initiative and reignite their flagging campaign. To this end, the SS troopers looked to capture the town of Weyersheim before moving on to the key city of Strasbourg. Capturing this urban center would potentially crack the American defense in the Alsace province. The approach to Weyersheim was problematic, however, with a number of water obstacles, patches of woods and wide-open spaces.Attacker: German (SS) (Bataillon I, SS-Panzergrenadier-Regiment 21 and Batalillon I, SS-Panzer-Regiment 10, SS-Panzer-Division "Frundsberg")
