Back to Normandy - Recently Added Listings - 1 Infantry Division (USA) https://www.backtonormandy.org/ Thu, 28 Mar 2024 17:15:44 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.3 1 Infantry Division (USA) trucked 100 mileseast Chartres https://www.backtonormandy.org/the-history/divisions-infantry/1-infantry-division-usa/213652-1-infantry-division-usa-trucked-100-mileseast-chartres.html

Having been pinched out of the line by the closure of the Falaise Pocket, the 1st Infantry Division continued mopping up and enjoyed some welcome rest and recuperation, but not for long.

The Allied advance across France continued at a breakneck pace.
A further encirclement entrapped even more Germans just short of the Seine River, and on 25 August the French 2nd Armored Division and American 4th Infantry Division made a triumphal entry into Paris in the midst of wildly ecstatic crowds.
Meanwhile, Allied commanders 8 envisioned even deeper penetrations and pursuit beyond the Seine.
The Big Red One was part of these plans, and was trucked over 100 miles to the east beyond Chartres, there to reassemble and prepare to continue the attack.

1 Infantry Division (USA) to eight miles northeast of Domfront https://www.backtonormandy.org/the-history/divisions-infantry/1-infantry-division-usa/213651-1-infantry-division-usa-to-eight-miles-northeast-of-domfront.html

General George S.Patton’s Third Army’s attack to the east encircled numerous German forces when it hooked northwards towards Argentan and Falaise.
The 1st Infantry Division had been securing the shoulder of this offensive, but now received orders to join in the attack as Allied forces squeezed the entrapped Germans into an ever smaller and smaller “Falaise Pocket”.
The division advanced from Mayenne to eight miles northeast of Domfront by 16 August, after which it was pinched out by British forces crossing its front as the pocket disappeared.
This proved yet another disaster for the Germans, who lost 50,000 prisoners in addition to the tens of thousands already killed or wounded in the fighting.
Perhaps equally damaging, the Germans who did escape lost most of their equipment in the pocket or in the pursuit.
The 1st Infantry Division was now free for another mission.

Having outflanked what remained of a continuous German line, the 1st Infantry Division pushed on to seize high ground in the vicinity of Mortain, securing the flank of General George S.Patton’s newly activated Third Army as it broke out into Brittany and also swung eastwards towards Le Mans.
The 1st Infantry Division turned its positions around Mortain over to the 30th Infantry Division on 6 August, and pushed on to Ambrieres-le- Grand and Mayenne as Patton’s penetration deepened.
On 7 August the Germans attempted a desperate counterattack through Mortain with an armored reserve they had accumulated for that purpose.
They hoped to reach the sea at Avranches, cutting off Patton’s Third Army.
The weight of the attack hit the 30th Infantry Division, but portions of it were repulsed by the 1st Infantry Division, which thereafter held the southern shoulder until reinforcements arrived.
The Mortain offensive, handled locally, turned into a disaster for the Germans while Patton’s offensive continued unchecked.

1 Infantry Division (USA) attacked towards Marigny https://www.backtonormandy.org/the-history/divisions-infantry/1-infantry-division-usa/213649-1-infantry-division-usa-attacked-towards-marigny.html

The 1st Infantry Division rolled through the wreckage left by the carpet bombing of 25 July and attacked towards Marigny.
Organized resistance had by and large been shattered, but small groups of Germans kept up the fight.
Confused fighting swirled around Marigny itself before the town was finally secured.
The division’s attached Combat Command B pushed on towards Coutances, but that attack was overcome by events.
A general withdrawal of German forces west of Marigny was followed up on by American divisions in that sector, who seized Coutances themselves.
The division redirected its attack from southwest to due south.
Effectively supported by wide ranging fighter-bombers and encountering increasingly incoherent hasty battle positions, the division’s attached armor barreled past Brecey on 31 July.
Infantrymen mopped up scattered resistance in the wake of the mounted advance.
The breakthrough into a war of open maneuver had at last occurred.

The 1st Infantry Division poised to serve in the breakout force for Operation COBRA.
COBRA had been set for 21 July, but was postponed to 22, 24 and then 25 July because of weather.
The plan envisioned “carpet bombing” by 2,500 planes dropping 5,000 tons of bombs within a six-square-mile sector of the German front west of Saint-Lô.
Successful carpet bombing depended upon sufficient visibility for pilots and bombardiers.
During the delay the 1st Infantry Division refined its preparations for the attack, in particular the incorporation of Combat Command B of the 3rd Armored Division as an attachment.
The tanks of this armored reinforcement were fitted out with the improvised “Culin Device”, steel prongs welded to their hulls that enabled them to plow through hedgerows rather than expose underbellies or tip over trying to crest them.
By 25 July the weather had cleared and the carpet bombing commenced.
By midnight on the 25th the 1st Infantry Division had closed to the Périer - Saint-Lô highway within its sector.

After two more weeks of active defense and aggressive patrolling, the 1st Infantry Division was relieved in its sector by the newly arrived 5th Infantry Division.
With Cherbourg secured, the Allies turned their attention to a major breakout operation, which came to be codenamed COBRA.
While grinding attacks by units on line west of the Vire River clawed towards ground suitable for mechanized operations, First Army Commander General Omar N.Bradley accumulated a mobile reserve to serve as his breakout force.
When COBRA commenced, he wanted “to make certain the blitz would get off to a fast start” and “called on the Big Red One to pace it.” 

The division withdrew to the vicinity of Bricqueville- sur-Mer to rest, refit, and fully motorize itself.

The Big Red One, along with the 2nd and 3rd Armored Divisions, would serve as the breakout force.

1 Infantry Division continued to defend in its sector, Caumomt https://www.backtonormandy.org/the-history/divisions-infantry/1-infantry-division-usa/213646-1-infantry-division-continued-to-defend-in-its-sector-caumomt.html

The 1st Infantry Division continued to defend in its sector, securing ground between major Commonwealth efforts to seize Caen and major American efforts to seize Cherbourg.
The division’s defense was an active one; regiments routinely sent out 60 patrols a night to probe enemy lines, keep the enemy off balance, secure tactical intelligence, and identify worthy targets for air and artillery strikes.
Stung by this rough treatment, the Germans responded with patrols and counterattacks of their own, but generally got the worst of it.
When their locations became known, they found themselves subject to deadly American artillery fire.
Indeed, artillery and snipers were dominant sources of casualties for both sides in this sector during this period.
The 1st Infantry Division perfected techniques for eradicating snipers, and many of its combat patrols were dispatched for this purpose.
The attrition and diversion of German forces continued.

Having seized Caumont, the 1st Infantry Division was appreciably in advance of other Allied divisions, forming a salient into German lines.

German efforts to reinforce their lines in Normandy had been greatly hindered by air strikes and an Allied deception plan that fixated their attention on the Pas de Calais, but they had managed to accumulate significant armored forces near Caen, and sufficient forces to effectively defend elsewhere.

Anticipating German counterattacks and focusing resources on seizing the port of Cherbourg, First Army Commander General Omar N. Bradley went over to the defensive in the 1st Infantry Division’s sector.

The division was ordered to dig in, hold what it had seized, and conduct aggressive patrolling “so as to deny the enemy any opportunity to abandon this front with impunity.” The division secured the shoulder of Commonwealth forces heavily engaged around Caen, and diverted and attrited its immediate adversaries with skirmishing, limited objective attacks, and counterattacks.

The 1st Infantry Division broke through the crust of enemy coastal defenses and pushed inland.
On 9 June, after tough fighting, just outside of Bayeux the division linked up with the British 50th Infantry Division fighting its way inland from Gold Beach.
Meanwhile, reinforcements were pouring ashore into the perimeter secured by the 1st Infantry Division, and the American 2nd Infantry Division came alongside it on its right flank.
The attack pressed forward into difficult Norman bocage.
Here troops encountered fields separated by thick hedgerows that divided the terrain into small compartments.
Ground had to be seized one field at a time, and the defenders enjoyed numerous tactical advantages.
The division nevertheless battled its way forward, forcing crossings of the Aure and Drome Rivers and advancing over 20 miles in the first week.
On 13 June it seized the strategic high ground around Caumont, and cleared that town the same day.

1 Infantry Division (USA) landed on D-day in Normandy France https://www.backtonormandy.org/the-history/divisions-infantry/1-infantry-division-usa/212911-d-day405.html

The 1st Infantry Division – the “Big Red One” – assault landed onto Omaha Beach on 6 June, 1944.
Seas were choppy and cross currents strong.
Many landing craft came ashore some distance from where they had intended.
German resistance, supported by significant obstacles, was well organized and determined.
American units found themselves intermingled, exposed and under heavy fire.
Amidst this confusion seasoned junior and intermediate leaders asserted themselves and restored momentum to the attack.
Soldiers in small groups clawed their way onto the bluffs overlooking the beaches, and turned aside to outflank German defenders blocking the few draws capable of passing vehicles from the beaches to higher ground.
Attacking through the night, by the next morning the division was astride Route 814 along the bluffs above the beach, and positioned to bring further vehicles and reinforcements ashore.
The courage under adversity of Omaha Beach has become iconic in the lore of the American soldier.

.. Waldo Werft I pay honor and tribute to the memory of your Uncle Silbert
Pershing as a fellow comrade of the 16th inf Regt. who also landed on Omaha Beach that day. I was a medic and could have been very close to your Uncle that morning. Many were hit by snipers that day. Some as they stepped off their landing craft. How I got to the beach, and off the beach safely, I'll never know. I later read that there were as many as 200 german snipers shooting at us that day, not to mention the murderous artillery, mortar, and machine gunfire. I was extremely blessed to have safely survived until the end of the war, and I highly honor the memory. of Sgt Pershing and all my many comrades who made the supreme sacrifice on D-Day. I am highly amazed, and grateful to God, at age 92, I am able to be here texting about this horrendous day in history! We shall never forget the fantastic bravery and sacrifice of all who gave their all that day!
