Steve, IIRC, Northwind was an assault on New Years day by German units( 8 German Divisions v Seventh US Army) in the northern Alsace, to take pressure off the units involved on the Ardennes Offensive just to the North. Eisenhower quickly reduced the 7th Army front, which held off the attack after advancing 15 miles.
