If it's patton's units going to relieve the 101st, then why does those two soldiers next to the halftrack have a spade and a club painted on their helmets. those were only seen on 101st helmets, no-one elses.

Martinnn you are right, Eric is wrong!
I know he has some problems with this posts so I guessesd he thinks the other thread is not working.

Anyway great dio, and I know because I've seen it in real. Still shaking the snow out off my hair! . :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)
