In early December, the Division was deployed to continental Europe, landing in Normandy, and moving south to a marshaling area at Rennes. Their mission was to reduce pockets of at Lorient and Saint Nazaire. With the German advance in the Ardennes Forest the division was rerouted to the bulge to stem the German advance. The division established defensive positions along the Meuse river. As part of Patton\'s Third Army the division kept open critical supply lines to Bastogn. Shortly afterward, orders came to advance another 85 miles northeasterly into Belgium, assuming attack positions in the vicinity of Neufchateau. The division moved across northern Luxembourg, assaulting the Siegfried line in force from February 6th through February 18th and helped open the way for armor led attacks on the Rhineland. The Division crossed the Rhine on the pontoon bridge at Nierstein on March 28th, and immediately attacked northeasterly toward Hanau and Fulda.
