Battle of Hurtgen Forest ... Battle of the Bulge
Battle of the Bulge speaks for itself; ever read about the Hurtgen Forest? A German officer said it was worse than fighting the Russians on the Eastern Front. Wow.
My FIL was at the Hurtgen Forest (5th Armored Div)... would never talk about it, not even to me. He'd get the 1000 yard stare just thinking about it.
Koch had flaws, but unlike today's libs, he loved America and he loved New York.

And you, sir. are using comments made by someone other than yourself. Apparently this was gleaned from a eulogy to be read at his funeral.

I have delivered a few.

They were to men of honor.

Really? That's why I said most others disagree with you and put their comments in quotes - dummkopf.

Well who in the hell said that, SIR? And how dare you insult me by calling me a dumbkopf.

Most does not mean one source.
