    All I know is that the surrender freed up more German units to join the 62nd Volksgrenadier in the attack on St Vith.

    Reading about this - there´s quite a lot of mix ups, actually.

    But I´ll go for Lt. Col. Joseph F. Puett.

    "Apparently General Jones intended that the battalion should turn north to Andler and push aside the enemy along the Auw-Andler-Schönberg road. Puett, however, got on the wrong road and turned south---leaving the northern approach to Schönberg open. "

    ;) :confused:

    Nearly there - Alan Jones (Sr) was connected with the action in question, but the man I'm after was actually on the Schnee Eifel and comes in for particular criticism on a tactical level in several books ( especially those by Trevor N Dupuy )....
