Allied forces at Kerpen

(October 24th - From the Front - Svedala)
(FTF) Yesterday, the Allied forces experienced pressure while loosing the towns of Metzervisse and Metz but regained confidence and strenght to push on and managed to punch a hole in the german line all the way up to Kerpen, dividing the 6. and 12. Armee and the whole Wehrmacht line of defence in chaos.

French and british forces managed to encircle and trap the whole 2. Panzerdivision in Schleiden with a complete cut off of Wehrmacht supplies. The three Kampfgruppes stood no chance defending their ground and tons of panzers, paks and flaks tried to breakout of their vehicle spawn but the whole Division was soon disbanded after a desperate last stand in the Armybase. British troops continued the fight along the Kerpen route and assaulted Bergheim sending in a tank coulmn on the south approach but was halted just hundred meters from the prize as flaks, panzers and half-tracks was lined up to take the armoured blow.
