This month, I’ve added three more map overlays to my online archive, all focused on the 2nd Armored Division in the Ardennes. I’ve carefully superimposed each one on the relevant topographic map. I’ll add a couple more next month.

I’m beginning the new year by adding two addition map overlays to my online archive. These documents relate to the 2nd Armored Division and its role in the Ardennes campaign. I’ve superimposed each overlay on the appropriate topographic map. I’ve added a third document, an English translation of a directive issued by Otto Remer, in which he threatens members of his brigade with courts-martial for plundering civilian homes in the Ardennes.
