:banghead::banghead:

 

I am still PO'd that Monty kept the news of the 507 PIR Regt. of the 17th AB Div. participation in Operation Varsity out of the news for 4 days after the 17th had jumped across the Rhine into Wesel Germany and it was a long time before many knew that it wasn't just the Brit 6th AB Div.(Red Devils) that did the jump!!

 

 

 

Sorry to hear of your friend's passing Sarge. I am to the point with "Monty" that I can barely stand to watch any documentary that includes any of his comments about the war, especially his post-war comments about the way Ike conducted the Allied efforts. If Montgomery had been Top Dog we would probably still be "cautiously" attempting to cross the Rhine...
