NORMANDY - STAND WHERE THEY FOUGHT TOUR 2007
#29

There is a book out called "WN62" with the accounts from Severloh. I had the luck to speak to this gunner back in 2006 bur he passed away in 2007. He claims to be the guy who hit around 2'000 !!! GI's with his MG42. Well, we never know if this is right.

 

There was another MG gunner named Franz Gockel who was also on at WN62 on June 6 but he too passed away in 2007. The book is from the German view but anyway still a good read.
