15 December 1944

Enemy movement on East bank of MEUSE confirmed by OPs.

Nothing further of interest on our front.

Further south a German fighting patrol, some 15 men in strength came across the MEUSE and assaulted a position of the INNS of COURT with supporting weapons. They were driven off. The INNS OF COURT sustained one casualty, but found three dead Germans the next day.

Alternative Information (from books, personal accounts)

"From early December ICR was stationed on the west Bank of the Maas working with two Dutch Patriot Companies in anticipation of a German counter-attack across the river. The weather was appalling and with continuous patrolling in boggy conditions against a determined enemy, life became deeply unpleasant".
