Default Re: Western front-interesting bits of information

From Hitler´s Commander by S. Newton

" In the Hürtgen forest the 47th Volksgrenadier Division also served notice that not all of Germany´s "instant divisions", thrown together in a few weeks´time, were pushovers. Soldiers in the U.S. 1st Infantry Division would later accord the 47th honors as " the most suicidal stubborn unit " this division has encountered.
