slim pickings in an empty pocket
Many Of the prisoners we have cap
tured have been hungry and we
have now captured many tanks and
vehicles stalled for lack OF fuel.
The actual timing OF the attack
and its strength were somewhat OF
a surprise. The attack was skill
fully launched. Field Marshal Won
Rundstedts movement of his re-
serves from the Cologne area to
the jumping-off position in the
Siegfried Line was masterfully exc
cuted. This was made possible by a
period OF bad weather which re-
stricted our air reconnaissance.
In considering the possibilities Of
a German attack through the Ar
dennes, we recognized that it might
meet initial success, but we felt the
nature of the terrain and the size
and mobility of our forces would
justify our taking risk. They would
enable us to meet and stop an at
tack before it could do too much
damage. This is exactly what has
happened.
The enemy's schedule for his at
tack was upset by the heroic re-
sistance Of our troops and by the
speed made by all three armies in
shifting divisions to meet the at
tack
The result was that wherever the
enemy turned along the north flank,
cropping toward a place where he
could break out in the Belgian low
lands, he was met by troops Of Gen.
Hodges LIST Army. He found block
ing his way the same American di-
visions which had been soundly
thrashing his best ever since the
beachhead days of Normandy.
An even greater surprise to the
enemy was the quick appearance Of
Gen. Patton's army on the south
flank. Matching the speed with

WITH THE 18th ARMY GROUP
Jan. 10.-Lt. Gen. Omar N. Bradley
breaking his silence regarding the
German counteroffensive which was
aimed at splitting the Allied line in
his 18th Army Group sector, said
yesterday that the now-thwarted
enemy move may materially affect
the Germans ability to resist"
Gen. Bradley, who was awarded
the bronze Star by Gen. Eisenhower
yesterday for his part in hating
the Germans, said at a press con-
ference that Germany's ability to
prolong the war may have been
reduced, but added quickly that this
did not mean the Allies could "as-
sumo the Germans are on the verge
of collapse"
From London, Prime Minister
Churchill sent congratulations to
Gen. Bradley, saying the award
seems to embody the feeling we
Britons all have about your part
in the great battle in which
United States troops have won
such great renown. We are
proud to serve in loyal comrade-
ship with your soldiers and
march with them in final VIC
tory.')
There is much hard fighting
ahead, Gen. Bradley warned.
The general told newsmen that In
leaving the Ardennes front lightly
held, the Allies took what is known
in military terminology as 'calcu-
lated risk striking boldly to the
north and south with surplus troops
Instead of keeping them in the then
quiet Ardennes sector.

ly while taking calculated risks" he
declared, lis what has gotten us to
the German border. In my opinion,
had we followed more cautious poll
,ies, we would still be fghing west

Gen. Bradley said, have been enor-

more severely in the open than
1ad been possible while he remained

( American and British air forces

ported missing in action or cap
tured.

ern flank Of the German penetra-
ton to the command Of Field Mar
shal Sir Bernard L. Montgomery is
temporary, Gen. Bradley empha-
sized. and those American forces
will be returned to the 18th Army
group as soon as the enemy salient
lis eliminated and communications
are re-established.
Follo,Cing is the tert OF Gen. Brad
ley's statement,
The German attack was the di-
rect result Of pressure exerted by
the 9th, 1st and Sd American Armies
and the forces of the 9Th Army
group-against the weakening Ger
man defense line.
The advances made during No.
vember and December were threat
ening vital German areas. It was
necessary that the Germans launch
some diversionary attack in sum-
cient strength to cause the Allies
temporarily to stop their offensives
against these vital areas and to try
to gain time.
The buildup of German forces had
been observed in the Ardennes area
for some weeks before the attack,
and the possibility of a German at
tack through the Ardennes was
thoroughly studied by me and my
staff.
In leaving the Ardennes line
lightly held we took what is known
in military terminology as a "cal-
culated risk" to strengthen our
northern and southern drives. In
other words, instead of employing
our surplus divisions in the then
quiet Ardennes, We used them to
attack in other sectors. This tech
nique-of striking = boldly while
taking calculated risks-is what has
gotten us to the German border.
In my opinion, had We followed
more cautious policies we would still
be fighting west of Paris. We felt,
in the case of the Ardennes, that
we could take this risk because this

The German attack launched on
December l6 cut our direct tele-
phone communication TO the 1st
Army and direct roads over which
personnel contact was normally
maintained. The weather prevented
US from making frequent personal
contacts with the 1st Army by
plane. It was, therefore, decided
that the 21st Army group should as
sumo temporary command OF all
Allied forces north Of the salient.
This was temporary measure only
and when the lines are rejoined,
the 18th Army group will resume
command Of all American troops
in this area. The soundness and
