A Confused Advance Towards Rohrbach

On the morning of December 5, CCB began to expand its bridgehead at Voellerdingen. General Dager's immediate objective was the high ground southwest of the town of Schmittville. Dager ordered Major Irzyk to advance no further than Schmittville, since CCA was slow in keeping up on their right; an advance beyond Schmittville would leave their right flank exposed to a possible enemy counterattack. Given the tank-led counterattack the 8th Tank Battalion had beaten off the day prior from their perch atop Hill 280, they were very aware that the Germans had panzers in the area, and thus had good reason to be wary.
