WE"RE NEARLY A MONTH AWAY from the 80th anniversary of the bloodiest battle for American forces on the Western Front during World War II — the BATTLE OF THE BULGE.
Annie and I will be walking in the shadows of my father’s footsteps, the foxholes, the farm fields, the forests, the little hamlets and ridge lines near Bastogne Belgium.
Follow as we trace the paths of so many of our young lads that bore their greatest courage into what they, those band of brothers, gifted us. Annie and I will be remembering with each reverent step… their names, their feats, their scars and sacrifice.
Join us on our blogging (Annie says we’ll be doing some video with narration) as we trek into the hallowed halls of our American history.
BONUS NOTE - The 17th Airborne Division, my Dad’s unit, began its journey to WWII’s western front from Camp Miles Standish, presently Myles Standish State Park in Massachusetts.
