Yes, slogged thrrough many cities, towns and villages om France and Germany. Believe that Nurenburg

was a bad one. A total 3 day battle in that city with walls with in walls. Much house to house and building to building fighting. They just hated to give up cities and towns. Of course back then we didnt have the strict rules like are imposed on our troops now. Thank God, as these are stupid rules. We

went all out to win, now it dont seem that way as we must please the enemy and to hell with our casualties in pleasing them.

My buddy Joe Medina of the 36th CE was pretty familiar with the 442nd from their time together at Velletri and talked about fighting with them again in the Vosages. I don't know much about the details but I think Velletri was a pretty hard fight. I know all the 36th CE's get riled up about the 36th ID getting the credit for Velletri.
