Post by Franz repper »

A group of our Aufllärungsabteilung, 2nd company, 3 platoon had a reconnaissance patrol in Reipertsweiler and made contact with the enemy . The Americans troops moved to the left and right from the road into cover and secured themselves in the protection of the houses. Kamerad Helmut Schmidt lifted a cellar door from the road up a shot followed Kamerad Schmidt lay mortally wounded in the open cellar door. Also these contacts could bring itself in security Due to this incident on the next day a section of approximately seven men were left in a cellar . Of a House at the edge of forest. At the local end of Reipertsweiler station from there was a good view to the road . On the same day, in the late afternoon, American artillery opened fire on us . Our Guards at the Cellar stairs were wounded Mortaly and died. Shortly there after we got a direct hit and this buried two Kameraden killing one of them Our commander decided to withdraw and only in the dawn and in the evening send in a reconnaissance patrol to the place . One of these reconnaissance patrols came under a artillery assault and during this Kamerad Hugo Hoffmann was mortally wounded

Translated from German by me this is part of a new thing that will be on the SS Nord website
