Overview: Road to Huertgen—Forest in Hell, originally published in 1962, chronicles the 1944 combat experiences of U.S. Army Lieutenant Paul Boesch. The setting is the Huertgen Forest, a 1,300 square mile, densely wooded, hilly region along the German-Belgian border south and southeast of Aachen. From mid-September to mid-December 1944, six American infantry divisions—the 1st, 4th, 8th, 9th, 28th, and 83d—and part of the 5th Armored Division fought at one time or another in the Huertgen Forest. These divisions incurred 28,000 casualties, including 8,000 due to combat exhaustion and rain, mud, sleet, and cold.
