In this article, the author discusses the outcome of the German counter-offensive in Belgium in 1945. It will probably not be known for some days what the outcome will eventually be, whether it would be German recoupment and fresh thrust onward or retirement to the old line or settlement at something like the present position. Beyond that, the bearing on total western-front strategy and dispositions will not be known for some time longer. But already enough is known to show that the Allies have suffered a grievous reverse. Some of the Germans' success in counter-attack must be attributed to their superior armor and their excellent employment of that important arm.
