Insanity at the Sanitarium

St. Edouard, Belgium, December 22, 1944: The Battle of the Bulge was in full swing and the 
Americans were hard pressed to repulse the German onslaught. But by this time, the counter-
offensive was beginning to pay off. Surrounding Kampfgruppe Pieper, the Americans held them 
to two small villages, Stoumont and La Gleize. Held in a crumbling sanitarium, the German forces 
were trying to hold off American tanks and troops. The Sanitarium was the key to getting Stoumont. 
The Americans poured it on and the Germans and civilians holed up in the cellar were to take a 
pounding.

Game Length: 9 turns

For the Americans to win they must capture the Sanitarium
For the Germans to win they must keep the Americans out of the Sanitarium building

Boards: #22, #32

Aftermath: The Sanitarium was taking a beating and was little more than rubble. A German AT gun 
was pounding out rounds in an effort to stall the American attack. When the fighting stopped, the 
civilians in the basement came out to find a sea of bodies. The dead held the upper floors.
