Trapped
LA PINETIRE, 4 Km east of RONCEY, FRANCE, 29 July 1944: Operation Cobra, started 5 days earlier, was very successful. The 
remnants of two Infantry Divisions (the 91st and the 243rd), paratrooper elements of Corps Meindl, and particularly the major 
part of 2nd SS Panzer Division Das Reich and of the 17th SS Panzergrenadier Division Gotz von Berlichingen where trapped in 
the so called Roncey pocket. Their only hope was to break the American lines toward the south and the southwest in order to 
join the German front line. Several attempts failed in the night from the 28th to the 29th. On the morning of the 29th at 0900, 
a particularly strong attack started in La Pinetiere, a hamlet around a crossroads. Several hundred paratroopers and SS, 
supported by 15 Panzers, pushed back a company of the 4th Infantry Division, placed there in protection, 1 km in front of the 
78th Armored Artillery Battalion of the 2nd Armored Division. Unable to retreat anymore, the GIs, now supported by 2 M7 
batteries, 4 M10 and 2 M16, blocked the German progression.
