I never heard of this until quite recently. Has anyone?

[cloudmountain]

I haven't but then you know Hollyweird: they HATE Germany, Germans and anything remotely German.

Gee, can't imagine why.

Forget Spielberg, this one is right up Mark Wahlberg’s alley. He would do it justice.

Nope, never heard this b4.

Should have teamed up and fought the Soviets.

[skinkinthegrass]

aren't there some incidents, where some German soldiers/pilots either ignored/or actually
disobeyed orders to harm/imprison allied soldiers?..not many but they're out there.

"The M3 was an American .45-caliber submachine gun adopted for U.S. Army service on 12 December 1942, as the United States Submachine Gun, Cal. .45, M3.[5] Compared to the Thompson submachine gun, the M3 was cheaper to produce, lighter, more accurate, and was also chambered in .45 ACP."

Never seen this one before either..

The most extraordinary things about Stephen Harding’s The Last Battle, a truly incredible tale of World War II, are that it hasn’t been told before

The most extraordinary thing about this battle is that French soldiers participated.

Not exactly the “last battle” of WWII. The Battle of Okinawa went into June. My father was wounded on Okinawa 10 days after this incident in Europe.
