January 24, 1945. In the frozen forests of eastern France, a U.S. infantry battalion faced a German counterattack supported by Tiger tanks. With forward observers killed, one American lieutenant made a decision recorded in official after-action reports.
This investigation reconstructs the battle step by step, following Garland Merl Connor as he ran forward under fire, directed artillery at point-blank range, and ultimately ordered shells onto his own position. Using documented unit histories and eyewitness accounts, the video explains how artillery, timing, and terrain stopped a force of roughly 600 German troops.
You’ll learn how WWII artillery coordination worked, why Tiger tanks were both feared and vulnerable, and how a single forward observer altered the outcome of an entire engagement during Germany’s final western offensive.
What would you have done in that situation—hold position, or risk everything to stop the attack?
