  24th's Bridge in Greatest Tank Battles
Posted by: Jim Webb - 01-07-2013, 12:57 AM - Forum: TV Shows, Film, Videos - Replies (6)


I like this show. They have great interviews and illustrations tied in. This is defiantly my favorite episode, it features the 4th ADs turn to relive Bastogne.

 

At about 7:16 of this part there is an illustration of a ponton bridge put in by the 24th Armored Engineer Battalion.

  Christmas presents
Posted by: brian m - 01-01-2013, 02:33 PM - Forum: Collectables - Replies (2)


I got some "new" goodies for Christmas. IMG_6388_zpsa9f0fcb7.jpg

 

I got six mess hall trays and an assortment of knives, spoons and forks. These will be great to use for cookouts or for guys night watching WWII flicks!

 

Though I must say my best Christmas present (besides my newborn son) was a visit with my Mothers Aunt and Uncle to talk about their WWII experiences. She worked in Pittsburgh, PA wrapping wires for the ammunition belts for airplanes and he started off in an anti-aircraft outfit here in the states and then went through Africa, the invasion of Salerno, Corsica and then up through France ending up in a laundry outfit. A very cool visit!

 

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone and I would love to see posts with presents you received!
