Your Uncle Max was a great Hero to our Allied Forces War Effort. Yes, the education of War sadly gave rise in valuable information on wound treatment. Ice and cold helped in many instances namely Hypothermia in Cold water Immersion treatments. You've heard the old adage, "You're not Dead until you are Warm and Dead." Yes, Cold help prevent injury and death but it also caused harm. Dress warm always. God Speed. Regards RMRoss

My father was there with the 101st. Airbourne as a Sargeant scout. He never really spoke of the battle, but he always teared up when the song, "I'll be home for Christmas" was played. So much was given by so many brave soldiers.

My uncle, John Hannon also fought at the Battle of the Bulge. And he landed on Omaha Beach on the 6th of June. And he made it off the beach. He was wounded twice. And his named is inscribed on the Purple Heart Memorial Wall in Washington. His father's name is also there. And his uncle's name as well. However, the Second World War was an disaster for Europe and the West. These men fought and died for nothing. And, (and), the war crimes which thousands of "brave and courageous" Allied soldiers committed against the civilian populations of France, Germany, Belgium and Holland. As well as Italy, has never been recognized. I shall observe that the Americans behaved themselves with reference to this matter much better than the English and the so - called "kanadians." Who were nothing more than looters, murderers, rapists and pedophiles. 50,000 French Catholic women and girls were kidnapped from their families, repeatedly beaten and raped. And then murdered. Approximately 5,000 of these women and girls remain "missing and unaccounted for" to this very day. And farmers across Normandy and Northern France still recover skeletal remains of these women and children. Every year. If you knew the "real" history of the Second World War, your assessment of your uncle's participation in this disaster might be rather different.

I’m retired Military Policeman, US Army , 26 years, First Sergeant (Retired) Disabled Combat Veteran, served in Bosnia ( with 1st MP Company, 1st Infantry Division “Big Red One), Kosovo, and Iraq. Huge WWII history “Nut” (like General McAuliffe Response) and of course I love reading /learning about MPs in combat in WWII. Did not know the story of this young MP Warrior and will definitely share it with the Military Police Community. Thoroughly enjoying all your videos . Great stories and research. Love the then & now pictures of the battlefields. I lived in Germany for 17 years and I loved to do the samething while visiting the battlefields, matching and old picture with a new. And even better is actually standing in these places where history took place and these brave incredible heroes fought and died.

Dear old Dad was an MP lieutenant, Headquarters company, 1st Infantry Division during the Battle of the Bulge. General Heubner would get after him to clear the roads leading out of Omaha during the landings at Normandy. Coincidentally, I was a member of the Big Red One - in much more peaceful times - in Germany, in the early seventies. My unit was, C Troop, 1st Sqdn, 4th Cav. We were stationed at a place called Panzer kaserne, outside of Stuttgart where, before the war, a lowly colonel named Rommel was in command. During the war, 4th Cav played an interesting, if peripheral part just before the invasion, in scouting out an island just northwest of Utah beach. It was thought to be a possible location for long range German artillery. In true Navy Seal fashion, the Cav sent scuba divers in to the island shore to do a little reconnaissance work. As it turned out, there weren't any guns on the island. Had there been, that artillery would have played havoc on the beaches to the south. Check out one of Mark Felton's excellent videos for further details on the subject.

Your words, "May we never forget", are so important. Your Then & Now documentaries are incredible and for me all of them are my favorite. You show us where the soldiers were and what the soldiers did such as this MP who stopped that tank. I had never heard of this soldier before so I am grateful to you for informing me of him and his actions that day. The more I learn about these soldiers lets me be grateful for their actions, thank them in my prayers, and be reminded of the sacrifices they made. What you bring to us in your videos are people we would otherwise never hear of, plus you show the infinite number of times that a single soldier at a single battle did an incredibly brave and courageous act which turned out to be pivotal in the complete victory won by these amazing men. When asked these veterans all say, "I was only doing my job", and, "I am not a hero", however what makes them heroes is that they did their job in the face of bullets, mortars, shells, mines, artillery, hunger, fatigue, fear, and weather. To "do their job" with all of those dangers facing them makes them heroes to me.

My grandpa told me that his dad said when his tank was getting pursued by the Americans, he almost soiled himself! I then found a website detailing information on it and I saw his name there! I then saw the first image and that must've been where my great grandpa was! Thank you for detailing these images as it's nice to research and know what my relatives went through.

I stumbled upon this channel and I am hooked. I thank you for posting these amazing photos and videos. My father was one of five sons and a daughter that served in WWII. He was in the 8th US Army Air Corps in the 96th Heavy Bomb Group (C) B-17 just outside of London. My uncle Bud served in the 2nd Armored Division and I had three uncles in the navy, one on a mine sweeper and 2 on destroyers. My Aunt Val was a WAC. All served the entire war and all returned home without a scratch, at least not physically. My father wouldn’t talk about the war much, always told me you wouldn’t understand. I can remember watching a movie with him called 12 O’clock High that had actual arial battle footage and radio communications. During one scene there was a B17 being shot down and a guy on a radio saying “there goes another Charlie” meaning C group which was my dads. I looked at him and he had tears streaming down his face. I could tell he wasn’t just watching the movie but he was back there again. When I graduated high school I joined the Army and after that he seemed more comfortable talking to me about the war. Still didn’t go into too much detail. I lost him in 1990 and miss him dearly.

Am not here to spoil the party, but.... 96th's airfield at "Snetterton Heath" is not even remotely close [Quote] " 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙤𝙪𝙩𝙨𝙞𝙙𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙇𝙤𝙣𝙙𝙤𝙣 " [Unquote] According to Google, it takes the best part of THREE HOURS ("2hrs,52mins" they remark) to reach it - It goes... In metaphorical terms, it's a bit like saying LOS ANGELES is "Just Outside New York", which is utterly ridiculous !!!! Or Florida is "Just outside Alaska" In point of FACT, the only nearest USAAF operational airfields (to London) were in ESSEX From the River Thames (London) = You have to pass THREE LARGE COUNTIES to even get there. LONDON >> ESSEX >> SUFFOLK >> NORFOLK & trust me, as I live there, Norfolk is a HUGE wide distance for U.K At night, even doing a steady 90mph (around midnight) most of the way, it still takes 90+ mins to traverse those 3. Majority of folks travelling from London to North Norfolk, or, East Norfolk (Norwich) takes over 2 or 3hrs (traffic) Ninth A.F airfields for B.26 Marauders WERE ALL based in ESSEX, the nearest being Willingale 387th Bomb Group & Matching Green 391st Bomb Group The nearest B.17 Fortress airfield to London would be either Bassingbourn (Cambridgeshire) or maybe even Ridgewell in Essex (the ONLY B.17 B.G in Essex) & both are like a gazillion miles from London, not even close. YET BOTH are still approximately only HALF the distance of what Snetterton Heath is to London. If you walked there, you wouldn't do it, even in a 24hr period. My suggestion is...... check out a map , ANY map, it's not exactly difficult when 'online' BTW ; I admire your folks who served & also I live in amongst those 8th A.F bases - (it's how I know....)

My Uncle was a Medic with the 75th and was involved in this action. He said that his column was proceeding down this road when they encountered the tank lit up and playing American music. Thinking it was an American tank someone yelled up at it in greeting. This caused the tank to stop close up hatches and began firing on the column until taken out by the bazooka. My Uncle then had the task of helping all the wounded. I have done a painting of this in memory of my Uncle Richard Hinton.

One of My Dads Older Brother’s was there as a Combat Engineer in the 289th Regimental Combat Team 75th Infantry Division , The Bulge Buster’s . He graduated from Tamalpais High School in June of 1944 and was in His First battle near Grandmenil Belgium on Christmas Eve 1944. He was a Son of Italian Immigrant parents. His Father had fought and barely survived with His life The Battle of Adwa , Abyssinia in 1896 evading capture there. While showing My Uncle one of My Garand M-1 rifles He began telling Me more than I had ever heard before about His experiences. He said He carried one just like it and as much extra ammo in cloth bandoleers as He could carry. The freezing cold , the smell of death and burning bodies inside burning tanks , Clearing minefields in the dark before infantry advances and after Grandmenil all the towns they went through. He spoke of seeing dead Americans who had been bound hand and foot and their bodies skewered with their own bayoneted rifles far up from the groin or rectum. He said it was at a place other than Malmedy. He grew up hunting deer and had killed many by that time , gutting , skinning , twisting heads off , butchering and processing them to feed the large family. He was still sickened at having to kill His enemies and though never a drinker later in life admitted that whenever alcohol was found they stayed drunk as long as they could , intense combat is a sobering experience.

It was a privilege to know one of the men in the picture shown at around the 8 minute mark, Maurice Masich. As it said in the video he survived, married and had four children, the youngest being a son named Maurice Peter Masich and a great friend of mine growing up in the town of Newberry, Michigan back in the 1970's. Pete's dad was Army all the way. After WWII he served in the reserves and was a recruiter for many years. Several years ago I learned in more detail about his service at Manhay and how important that battle was. I remember the swagger and confidence which Mr. Masich (as I called him) always carried himself and I now know why. You don't go through military service like WWII and not have it change you in many ways. Mr. Masich was I believe 18 years old at the time of the picture and I remember him telling me he had to get permission from his parents to join early so he could "get in the action before it was over." I can't even imagine being put in that kind of situation at that age, it would sure make a man out of you fast. I have always agreed with Tom Brokaw that they were the "Greatest Generation" of Americans. Selfless to a thought, willing to lay down their lives to fight fascism and dictators around the globe and had the integrity to come home and pay for the cost of the war, not leaving a bill for future generations to pay. Even though these images of WWII can be difficult to see at times, its important that they are seen and many thanks to folks like Snafu Docs for keeping these memories alive for future generations to see what it really takes to preserve freedom. As we all can see, "Freedom Ain't Free."

As we proceed into the future people especially the young ones will eventually cease to read history(they already say reading books is boring) and rather focus on watching and following social media. I therefore believe that one day your videos might become part of history classes around the world so keep up the great work and this idea of comparing the footage from the past with nowadays scenery having in mind that there is so much material across Europe regarding WW II

The last weeks there was a lot of snow here in St Vith. Then still its hard to imagine how many soldiers were outside or in hardly warmed building. I did find some ww2 items in my old house. I like the then and now's. I talked too my 93 year old neighbour who had some nice stories told to my. He saw the bombardement of St. Vith and Germans who blew up the bridge at Setz. And how those Germans were captured while drinking coffee in his house.
