Rick, Charleston SC

My next Door Neighbor was a a Child in Arnhem during the War. On the Second day of the battle a nun came and moved about 200 women and children across the battle lines and got them to England and then Canada. Her entire family were killed. She moved to South Carolina after her Son married a Charleston boy. Miss Albie and my wife are fruit picking partners, Strawberries last month, peaches up next. CONGRATULATIONS!, CONGRATULATIONS!, CONGRATULATIONS! My son is 26 now, I envy your journey...

Also when it came to tanks, the Germans favored bigger tanks with bigger guns, with the idea being that they could destroy multiple tanks for every tank they lost.

Context for the episode. Market Garden took place a little less than a month after the Allies had liberated Paris.

How can you not look at each other? You're both too adorable! If you're interested, the entire failed Operation Market Garden is depicted in an epic 1977 film called "A Bridge Too Far." It's not a great movie, but it has nearly every famous actor of the 70s in it. I know you've already watched episode 5, which I think is one of the weaker episodes, but I want to say that episode 6, "Bastogne", is one of my favorites. It truly makes you understand how it must feel to be at war in the winter.

Thanks!

A unit citation is for the entire unit, its not a personal medal. They are all supposed to wear it because its part of the unit. Cobb was wrong to make him feel bad about wearing it. You're supposed to wear it.
