Allied Air Power Tolls German Line as Push In Western Front
Allied air forces from Britain and the United States bombed and supported advances along the German offensive path. American troops cleared Winden near Duren and linked up with Doughboys in a pocket near La Gleize, taking 150 prisoners and capturing 38 tanks and other vehicles. On the Seventh Army front, slight gains were reported west of Wissembourg and a raid on Thann was repulsed as Germany risks its main army on the western front.
