His unit captured the town of Vossenack, Germany, in the Hürtgen ForestMy FIL fought in the Hürtgen Forest - 5th Armored Division.
Despite my being a combat vet he never said a word to me about it.

I’ve been to the Hürtgen Forest, and it is still nightmarish from the infantry perspective. The Hürtgen Forest cost the U.S. First Army at least 33,000 killed and wounded, including both combat and non-combat losses, with upper estimates at 55,000; German casualties were 28,000.
The battle was so costly that it has been described as an Allied “defeat of the first magnitude.”
