Episode 20: September 16th and 17th, 1944

from Letters from the Past · host Scott Ginther

On the 16th of Sept, the battalion moved out towards the river at 0715.  The Moselle was crossed without incident in a heavy smoke screen. I sure don’t know what I’ll sleep in tonight because everything is wet.  Reminds me of Tennessee. A little French girl has been over a dozen times yesterday.  I gave her everything I got I didn’t want.  This morning they brought over a pie.  I gave her four packages of cigarettes for it for her papa.  She left all smiles.
