Looks like Hürtgenwald, south of Germeter. Not sure what particular action took place on that part.

Hurtgen Forest Batlle (portion) Near Vossenack
The U.S. Army's Center of Military History has estimated that 120,000 troops, plus replacements, were committed to Hürtgen; by the end there had been 23,000 battle casualties plus 9,000 non-battle. Two divisions, the U.S. 4th Infantry Division and the U.S. 9th Infantry Division, were so badly mauled that they were withdrawn from the line to recuperate.
Near this place, the battle for Schmidt cost 6,184 U.S. casualties — compared with about 4,000 losses by the two divisions at Omaha Beach. German casualties were fewer than 3,000.
In the second phase, the U.S. 4th Division had advanced 1.5 mi (2.4 km) by November 20, having suffered 1,500 battle casualties plus non-battle casualties numbering in the several hundreds due to trench foot, frostbite, and exhaustion. After two weeks, 3 mi (4.8 km) had been gained for 4,053 battle and 2,000 non-battle casualties, bringing the November totals to 170 officers and 4,754 men.
Some units fighting in this operation also fought at Omaha Beach; comparing the two, veterans said the Battle of Hürtgen Forest was a much bloodier fight than Omaha.

This place is full of bunkers, pillbox, etc. Very nice forest in the center of Europe. In this place you can find a interesting story of one US soldier. Robert Cahow.
