The morning of October tenth, nineteen forty-four, in the dense Ardennes forests of Belgium, a chill clung to the branches, and the ground was littered with the remnants of shattered winter shells. German infantrymen of the 116th Panzer Division crouched behind sodden tree trunks and rubble-strewn roads, their Kar98k rifles held tight, waiting for the first sign of American movement. Lieutenant Hans Keller checked his watch, the cold metal biting into his fingers. The orders were clear: hold the line, keep the American forces from breaking through the forested bottleneck.
Across the clearing, barely a hundred meters distant, a single American squad advanced. Their movement was methodical but unnervingly confident. Unlike the Germans, whose doctrine emphasized careful, disciplined volleys under the command of an NCO or officer, these infantrymen moved with a rhythm that seemed almost mechanical, yet terrifyingly fluid. The source of their confidence became apparent in the next heartbeat. The M1 Garand rifles slung across their shoulders spat rounds in rapid succession, one after another, in what the Americans called “walking fire.” Each trigger squeeze released bullets at a tempo no bolt-action soldier could match.
