Who that has ever seen the award winning movie "Battleground" can ever forget it? When I was a kid the vets all thought this was the best film made about grunts during that war.

I know what it's like to live outside in those conditions and I wasn't even getting shot at. So,my deepest thanks to those guys in my brother division the 101st and also the civilian men and women of Belgium that shared the same experience.

Hey Jerry!
It must have been just yesterday when I was thinking of your brilliant portrayal of the ‘Kinney’ character! … Are you freakin’ clairvoyant or something?

My deepest respect goes out to all whom endured those unbelievable conditions ...

When I was a kid, long before I had a very sophisticated knowledge of history, the minister of my church was a WWII vet. He never talked much about his experience but the one memory he did relate was how on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day 1944(cant remember which day exactly)he was chest deep in freezing cold water holding his rifle above his head somewhere in the Bulge. I always wondered if that had anything to do with him becoming a man of God.
