9 The Durham Light Infantry liberated Dieteren
On the morning of 16th January, with the ground covered in thick snow 9th DLI moved out, into a fog caused mainly by the smoke screen freezing in the air, to take Dieteren.
Soon the village fell, but the Germans sent a machine gun team back to fire on the engineers building the bridge and they then had to be cleared by the DLI.
