Episode 45: February 19th - 23rd, 1945

from Letters from the Past · host Scott Ginther

World War 2 letters from a U.S. Army Captain in Europe to his wife in Michigan. The 23rd saw the opening of the large-scale 1st and 9th Army attack across the Roer in the sector to our north.  Our own immediate front remained quiet with only a limited number of harassing mission being fired.   I am here and with this much difference in space the only thing that can hold us together is our love and faith in one another.  This I should never doubt and surely by this time you know my love in you.  I surely hope & pray darling that I will never do anything to make you ever lose faith or love with me.  You are all that I really have.  What good would anything that I now have be without you?  Nothing.
