Here's something that Jim and I would like to share with everyone regarding the great 87th. This quote is from a manuscript written by the commander of the Wehrmacht Fuehrer-Begleit-Brigade General Ernst Remer about the Battle of the Bulge and the actions of 5 January 1945:
"....In this connection, it must be said that the enemy forces (in this case, the 87 Inf Div (US) fought very skillfully, as far as infantry was concerned. It was the only force for which we had respect, even during the night."
I added this to his Memories of James Hennessey
