Map 1. Strategy in the West. The Allied breakout from Normandy was made on a “broad front”, but as their supply lines lengthened the advance slowed, giving the Germans time to regroup for “Herbstnebel” (p.5)
Map 2. Operation “Herbstnebel” planning. Hitler’s “grosse losung” and the “kleine losung” of his generals. In retrospect, the Fuhrer should have accepted the latter, less ambitious, plan (p.9)
Map 3. Operation “Herbstnebel” planning. Sixth Panzer Armee’s intended routes to the River Meuse. The most northern Rollbahn was reserved for LXVII Korps. Rollbahns A, B & C were assigned to 12 SS-Panzer Division while Rollbahns D & E were intended for 1 SS-Panzer Division. In fact, because “Hitler Jugend” got embroiled on the northern shoulder, Kampfgruppe “Peiper” used parts of C, D and E (p.10)
Map 4. Operation “Herbstnebel” planning. The railheads for troops and supplies for Sixth Panzer Armee. Keitel estimated that no fewer than 50 trains would be needed for ammunition alone. Many had to spend the daylight hours hiding in tunnels from Allied air attacks (p.14)
Map 5. Operation “Herbstnebel” planning. When finalizing “Herbstnebel”, the Germans knew that the U.S. First Army was thin on the ground, with divisions holding 20-30 mile fronts. They did not know precisely what lay in front of Sixth Panzer Armee, but estimated between five and seven divisions, including two armoured (p.18-19)
