Family members return to Malmedy - Walt's Daughter - 06-16-2010


Finally getting caught up with many of my posts, several of which have been sitting in my inbox for over a week. This was sent to me by Reg. Yes, it is in French, but here is an explanation of the video in French and English.

 

Le 17 décembre 44, pris au piège par la colonne Peiper, plus de 80 soldats américains ont trouvé la mort à Baugnez sur les hauteurs de Malmedy. Un drame qui, malgré le temps qui passe, reste encore gravé dans les mémoires. Aujourd’hui, la fille et le petit-fils d’un GI américain, ont voulu marcher sur les traces de leur père et grand père, l’un des 5 rescapés du drame et encore en vie aujourd’hui.

 

December 17, 44, trapped by the Peiper''s column, more than 80 American soldiers were massacred at Malmedy. A drama that, despite the time that passes, still remains engraved in the memories. Today, the American daughter and grandson of a GI, walked in the footsteps of father and grandfather, one of the 5 survivors of the drama and again in life, today.
