. . "The Battle of Arracourt was a battle between U.S. and German armored forces during World War II near the town of Arracourt, Lorraine, France, from 18 to 29 September 1944. As part of a counteroffensive against recent U.S. advances in France, the German 5th Panzer Army had as its objective the recapture of Lun\u00E9ville and to force the collapse of the U.S. XII Corps bridgehead over the Moselle River at Dieulouard. With a local superiority in troops and tanks, the Germans anticipated the defeat of the defending Combat Command A(CCA) of the U.S. 4th Armored Division. Against German expectations, due in part to poor tactics and the terrain, the 4th Armored Division's CCA, in concert with U.S. tactical air forces, defeated two Panzer brigades and elements of two Panzer divisions."@en . .
