Awesome Keith! I will have to scan this to a picture so I can add this to rally point about this 92 year old Veteran of WW2 I met at a coffee shop and he was in the Battle of the Buldge all the way to after the Germans surrendered and he was put in a ski resort just like Easy Co. was in Austria at the end., His name is Bill Brown. I met in Edmonton, Alberta Canada and I had this article printed in my Brigade Newsletter of the 75th TC my OC/T unit. I am in Portland, OR on the way back to Canada and I can't scan it but I will get back to you next weekend!
