Page 7 headline: "German Diary Shows Terror of US Guns"

A fascinating insight into a German soldier's perspective.

I had not read before of US artillery dominance.

I believe henkster has mentioned it a time or two.

Yes; the Germans who fought in the west feared the American artillery. “Everywhere, all the time, and in unbelievable quantity.”

This despite a shell shortage and rationing of ammunition.

Just wait until they meet the proximity fuze.
