    52 nations versus 1. Knightly victors surely. The Germans would run out of ammo and gas constantly. Of course Britain and France declared war on the Germans for the 'crime' of saving a huge portion of their country (East Prussia). They constantly fought against insurmountable odds - and kept fighting bravely to the bitter end. You're not 'great' if you beat up an old lady (although there are large swaths of our population who do just that, but no one does a thing about it). I guess the odds aren't placed well enough.

So did my dad in the 36th, up through Italy, invasion of southern France and crossed into Germany throught Seifired line, in the Vosage mts and black forest. Dad was battlefield severlly wounded by mortar shrapnel with spinal back injury, survived but left him in a wheelchair at the age of 21 for the rest of his life. Life long vet hospital patient, member of Disabled American Vets and Paralized Vets of Aamerica. dad eventually died of complications off his WW2 wounds in 1970. He is missed by his family to this day. BTW- A great Marlon Brando film, 'THE MEN' had this group of recovered paralized vets in it at their recovery hospital in Calif. Many of the vets were in this film and background performers.

    My Great Uncle Wayne was in the Airborne also. He jumped behind enemy lines in Normandy. I think he jumped out of a glider, if I recall correctly. His son was a Marine in Beirut when they bombed the barracks. I believe some of the AA were the first to reach some of the concentration camps. God bless them,I don't think I could deal with that image of horror.

    My father was in the same company as Audie Murphy. My dad was in the unit from basic training at Camp Roberts, CA to advanced infantry training, to Africa fighting Romnel. Audie was a replacement while they were in Africa. I found a copy of the orders for the Combat Infantryman’s badge. My fathers name is on the orders along with SSG Audie Murphy. My dad saw all the action and was only wounded once in France from a mortar. He went to a combat hospital then back to the unit. His last assignment was guarding Himmler’s house
