I read something a few years ago which seems so unlikely that I am not sure if it is true.

Anyway it said we suffered more casualties in the “Battle of the Bulge” than we did in the entire Pacific Theater from Pearl Harbor to VJ Day.

Does anyone know if that is true?

At least two regiments of the 106th [?] were surrounded on the Schnee Eiffel and surrendedered. And that’s just one division.

The battle of the Hurtgen Forrest was the bloodiest battle of the war. The US 28th div{Bloody Bucket because the red Keystone look like a bloody bucket. It was a PA Nat Guard unit} Was almost destroyed.
But as a interesting side note, A German LT crawled into a mine field to rescue a wounded GI and was killed. The US put a marker stone with the Whermacht officer's name on it as a Memorial to him. it is the only time the army did that for a enemy solider.
