			== Interrogation Report No. 107 (27 December 1944) ==
			During the Battle of the Bulge, [[Team IPW 46\|IPW Team No. 46]] was attached to Headquarters, '''120th Infantry Regiment''' (A.P.O. 30 — '''30th Infantry Division'''). At '''1930 on 27 December 1944''' the team issued '''Interrogation Report No. 107''' covering PWs processed from 2200 hours 26 December through 27 December.

			The report names '''no American interrogators'''. It summarizes two German prisoners (PW Nos. 3824–3825): one from '''4 Co / 11 Pz Regt, 9 Pz Div''' (referencing Report No. 106) and one from '''Hq I Bn / 293 VG Regt, 18 VG Div''', captured near map coordinates '''(792020)''' after a security squad was moved from '''Bellevaux''' to a roadblock and overrun. Unit-history notes place the 293rd VGR battalion’s move from Denmark via '''Bleialf (Schnee-Eifel)''' into the Malmedy–Stavelot sector.
