I wrote a letter to the editor of WWII Magazine this afternoon, inquiring if he could put us in touch with General Michael Reynolds. Let's hope that my efforts succeed.

Dear Mr Anderson:
I am writing to you on behalf of a friend, Anthony Consiglio, the son of a 291st Combat Engineer, whose father was one of the men who was referred to in an article titled, Desperate Stand at Malmedy by Michael Reynolds.
Anthony has tried unsuccessfully in the past to contact others including Major General Michael Reynolds, but didn’t know how to proceed. He contacted me last night when he discovered my site regarding WWII combat engineers, and was wondering if I could assist him in his search. He states in his email to me:
“My dad is ‘one of the 3 engineers’ General Reynolds talks about in this article, who ran into the lone farm house along with those from K company and those TD men from 823rd. He saw the other 291st men killed and saved the 3rd when he dragged him from up stairs down into the basement. He ran outside in back and used the machine gun from the 2 dead TD men and sprayed the entire hedgerow and hog house and killed numerous German foot soldiers. He was the same man out of 33 trapped in the house to make it out and go back for help to the front lines with the guy from K Company.â€
I am hoping that you will be able to put us in contact with General Reynolds, or at least forward this letter of inquiry to him. I thank you in advance for your assistance. Please note that I am a long time subscriber to WWII Magazine and enjoy it immensely. I frequently refer to it on my website and recommend it highly as an accurate source of information to my viewers.
Warmest regards,
