As the Seventh Army approached the Wiseembourg gap, it encountered one of the most heavily fortified areas of Europe with the Maginot Line on the French side of the border and the Siegfried Line on the German side. Here, troops of the 71st Infantry, 44th Division, look over portions of the Simershoff fortress, part of the Maginot defenses, on 20 December.
