Unbelievable WWII Then & Now: HAGUENAU. Standing Where They Fought!

The city of Haguenau is well known for its mentioning in HBO's Band of Brothers. However, the liberation of Haguenau goes beyond the 101st Airborne Division. After more than week of fighting, the 79th Division took Haguenau on December 10, 1944. After that the fighting continued and the Division moved up further to the German border into the Siegfried Line. On December 16, 1944 the Germans launched their massive counter attack in the Ardennes not far from Haguenau. That counter attack became as the battle of the bulge. The front line remained stable in area of Haguenau, but what the Allies did not expect was that the Germans had a follow up plan. On December 31st, 1944, the Germans launched another massive counter attack in Vosges area to destroy the American 7th Army and use the Rhine valley to retake Strassbourg. After three weeks of fighting and giving up ground, Haguenau became a battle zone again.. The Moder River formed a natural border between the American and German lines. The 101st Airborne Division was rushed up to the front here in the last week of January 1945 to relieve the 79th Infantry division and strengthen the positions along Moder River. The 36th Infantry Division relieved the 101st Airborne Division on February 27, 1945. And two weeks later on March 15th, the allies resumed the offensive. However it wasn’t until March 19 that the last German was cleared out of Haguenau after house-to-house fighting. ➡️ Take a look at all the Then & Now photographs of this video on https://www.snafu-docs.com/then-now-t... ➡️ Are you a descendant of a World War II veteran and would you like to learn more about his or her service?
