Catz across the Vier Canal on the
road to st. Jean de Daye. The
water unit, always abreast with
forward elements of the 1104th en-
gineer combat group, has had it's
share of enemy bombings, straf-
ings and shellings.
At Cavigny, the German airmen
knocked out a water tank with
anti-personal bombs. Near st. Lo,
repeat performance was given
by the Luftwaffe. Three bombs
tailed three casualties but did not
interrupt the pumps. st. Severe
Calvados, Percy, 'Senoches, Bre-
zoles, Evreux, st. Andres, Dom
front, st. Germaine and POntoise,
all in France, were succeeding
water-point locations. From Pom
tOise, the unit, with their equip
ment mounted on one-ton trailers,
made the big jump to st. Amand,
their last step in France In the
spearhead drive which took the
246th Engineers from st. Amand
to Bilsen, Belgium, two points were
established at Collenelle and Lam
nicourt. The units working con-
ditions were perfect in Belgium due
to the friendly attitude displayed
by civilians.
The next point was at Maastricht
Holland, but was quickly removed
because of enemy counter-attack
threats. Later, at Orsbeck, water
was tapped from the city water
supply for the first time. This
simplified pumping difficulties
though the unit still chlorinated
the water to guard against possible
poisoning attempts. Here, unit
record was set-45, 900 gallons of
water were pumped in one day.
The units next stop was in Ger
many. Major battle towns like
Aachen, Tweifall, Hurtgen Forest
and Bardenburg were given water
points Currently, the unit of the
246th Engineers is looking forward
to testing and pumping water east
of the Rhine river.
