My Pop fought in the Huertgen Forest with the 4th I.D. Jumped into a well [thought it was a foxhole] while trying to rescue a surrounded infantry unit. Got such bad frostbite they had to medevac him to England.
The fighting along the Kall trail was almost sureal. My grandmother remembers the terrible, long casualty lists of “Pennsylvania Division” soldiers being printed daily in the Philadelphia papers, but no one knew why they were suddenly so many WIA/KIA because of the censorship...
