One of the most historically useful decisions made during World War II was to create Information and Historical (I & H) units to conduct combat interviews of survivors shortly after actual events. The 110 or so combat interviews of the 7th Armored Division are preserved at the National Archives in Record Group 407 (Adjutant General). This book contains the I&H narrative account, based on numerous interviews of officers and men after their January 1945 retaking of St. Vith, Belgium, in the Battle of the Bulge.
