Sadzot #2

Sadzot, Belgium, December 28, 1944: During the night, two two companies of 
the 2nd SS Panzer Division had overwhelmed a small American mortar unit in 
the village. With first light, two companies of paratroopers counterattacked.

Aftermath: The paratroopers had to charge across an open field directly into 
the fire of the German machine guns. Luckily, due to the cold, most of the 
troopers had taken cover in the houses. Once across the field, the village of
Sadzot was cleared in house-to-house combat. Before the morning was over, 190 
SS had fallen and Sadzot was again in American hands.
