Historical Background
November 1944,German troops withdraw on two lines of defence in the Vosges mountain : "Vor-Vogesen Stellung" (1st
line) and "Vogesen Stellung" (main line of defence). General Leclerc ordered to colonel de Guillebon to breakthrough 9 x1
these lines in order to have open way to Strasbourg. Two columns of the combat command were in charge of this
breakthrough : the Minjonnet column was in the north facing the open country before the village of Voyer and the
Massu column was in the south in front of the enclosed valley of Saint-Quirin. While Minjonnet was reducing a hard
German resistance in Voyer, Massu ordered to his infantry to capture the enclosed valleys leading to Dabo. At the end
of the day, the infantrymen had made a breakthrough in the "Vogesen Stellung" and Massu sent the message : "Now, I
can exploit".
