We have a community now.
I rarely get to play, but, I do have a few games going by cyberboard. You should look into that.

<,p>Disagree. Nazis needed killing. Still do. Especially to the perpetrator of the Malmedy Massacre. No commies ivolved in that. Just SS butchers killing Americans.

My uncle who was there said it was “Cold enough to freeze a turd in a dead Eskimo.”

The segment in “Band of Brothers” on the battle is quit good.

I am sure the actor Charles Durning survived the massacre.

There's a lot more to the story of the Malmedy Massacre than most are aware of. It's not what you saw in the movie
Battle of the Bulge.
I have a small library dealing with it.

I know that Dan-o survived the massacre, too.

Yes and Peiper and Sepp Dietrich escaped the death penalty because there was no proof that they ordered the execution of the American POWs at Malmedy.
To: Welcome2thejungle
Correct. Peiper was hell and gone at the front of the attacking column at the time of the massacre.

My favorite segment from Band of Brothers was when our troops liberated Hitler’s lair at Berchtesgarden. Now that was really interesting!
Band of Brothers was INCREDIBLY realistic!
To: Welcome2thejungle
I’ve watched it about 10 times, maybe more. I have the DVD set, and love it.

I’ve seen it many times too usually on the History Channel.
