I te 19 o Tihema, i whakawhitihia te pou whakahau o te 28th Division ki Bastogne mai i Wiltz, he taone nui o Luxembourg ki te tonga-rawhiti. I Wiltz, i whakaarahia e te wehenga tana tuunga whakamutunga; Ko te 3rd Battalion o te 110th - i tautokohia e te patu me te patu patu - i tae mai ki te taone i te waenganui o taua ra. I whakatuhia te 44th Engineer Battalion ki te raki o te taone, engari kaore i roa ka hinga ratou ka hoki ki roto i te taone, ka pupuhi i tetahi piriti i muri i a raatau. Ko tenei kaha iti - kaore i neke atu i te 500 i roto i te katoa - i mau tonu tae noa ki te ahiahi, i te wa i kore ai to raatau tuunga, ka hoki ki te hauauru.
