Re: Firsthand account of Battle of the Bulge

"We were in German uniforms, so we spent three hours under our trucks with guns to our heads convincing our American colleagues that we were really Americans. We finally got them to believe us, but our reward for all of this! No rest, nothing to eat, nothing at all! They wanted the communications equipment put up again. Right away!"
Well, I find this most interesting!! I've heard of Skorzeny's men, but I've never heard of Americans dressing as Germans! Amazing they got away with it at all!

Too bad I'm not a little closer. I'd love to hear him talk!
