CHAPTER VI
TO THE RHINE
Initially upon its return to France and assignment to the Seventh Army, the Sixth Armored Division was placed in XV Corps Reserve. The Siegfried Line was not yet pierced in the Seventh Army sector, and it was the mission of XV Corps to crack the line with infantry divisions before using armor in exploitation; the Sixth had a few more days of rest in store. But the artillery was detached from the division on March 13 and sent to support the initial corps attack east of Sarregnemines. Assigned to reinforce the 10th Field Artillery Battalion, Third Infantry Division, the 212th left its assembly area the morning of the 13th, and moved east through Dieuze and Sarre-Union to positions around Gros Rederching.
Through the Siegfried Line for the second time . . . an M-7 rolls into Ormesviller. The firing was halted abruptly at 1515 the 19th, however, with word that the 63rd Infantry Division had achieved a breakthrough of the Siegfried north of Sarreguemines. The battalion was ordered south immediately with Combat Command A to assemble behind the 63rd in preparation for a dash through the hole. Ormesheim, a town ten miles north of Sarreguemines, became the 212th's position area, and the battalion remained there for the night. The reported breach of the line was not yet fully accomplished, but the job was expected to be complete by noon of the 2Oth, and ready for exploitation by Combat Command A. It was ready. At 1200 March 20 Combat Command A moved north from its assembly area through Ormesheim and the Siegfried towns of Hassel and Kirkel and then out into the open where nothing but the darkness of the night stood between it and the Rhine. The command split into two columns at Limbach, just past Kirkel, and both forces reached the high ground short of the Rhine by morning without opposition. The south column held up at Biedesheim after 71 miles; the north task force stopped temporarily at Marienthal with 85 miles behind it, and then at noon moved right up to the Rhine at Rhine Durkeim, some 20 miles north of Worms. Both columns contacted Third Army elements advancing south from the Moselle River; the Saar pocket was closed. Net proceeds 80,000 German prisoners.

    World War II History
    of the 2nd Chemical Mortar Bn
    This history was written at the end of WWII, when David W. Meyerson was Bn CO,
    and is based largely on unit records compiled and edited by Bob Ladson, Bn S-3.
    Foreword
    This is the history of the Second Chemical Mortar Battalion in the European Theater during World War II. It has been taken from the unit journal and written especially for both the former and present members of the battalion. Though it would be impossible to cover each action completely or go into details of individual accomplishments, the reading of this history, names of towns and places, supported units, and battles will bring to mind individual experiences, gay times, hardships, and tragedies as well, that were shared with old friends and all sorts of events long forgotten in the maze of actions that took place during this period. Herein lies the story of a fresh, inexperienced battalion seasoning into a battle-tested machine ready for nay task. It is the story of a new type unit and with no precedent working with such determination, ingenuity, and adaptability as to bring only praise for every assigned mission. It is a record covering three invasions and operations under as many and as varied conditions as that of any Army unit. Serving under Seventh Army in Sicily, Fifth Army in Italy, the French First Army and Seventh Army in France, and then on through Germany and into Austria, the battalion has compiled an outstanding record that has earned for it six battle participation awards. Through this is reflected the sincerity of purpose of each individual in making a real contribution to the war effort. It is a record of which each member of the battalion may well be proud.

    World War II history of the light cruiser USS Santa Fe (CL-60), the Lucky Lady.
    http://santafe.paintrock.net
    During World War II, my father, Frederick P. (Andy) Anderson, was a U.S. Marine stationed aboard the USS Santa Fe (CL-60), a Cleveland Class light cruiser that saw action from the Aleutians, to the Philippines, to Iwo Jima. Especially noteworthy for the Santa Fe was her role in the rescue of the aircraft carrier Franklin and a large portion of her crew. The text of this account of the voyages of the Santa Fe was prepared in 1947 by the Ships Data Section, Office of Public Information, the Navy Department. Many of the photos on this website are scanned from the U.S.S. Santa Fe Cruise Record with captions I have written. Additional photos come from the Naval Historical Society website, private collections, and other online sources.
