Christoph, Thank You for sending me to Ray Repasky's fantastic memoir site. Some time ago I found it by Googling but at that time, regrettably, I never actually examined it. This time I saw how much information was there and regretted not having delved into it sooner. it will take me a long time to digest everything he has there. Thank God there are men like him!! Not only because of his war efforts but because he is preserving the information forever. He does not know us and yet he helps us and others and will for centuries to come.
I wonder if Ray knows Harold. I need to call Harold and will ask him that and about the map.
One day I am sure I will locate the exact date when Norton and the others left Siegburg to go to Waldbrol. Norton knows there was no artillery fire while he was there. And the other night in our telephone conversation he said that as he was leaving he saw German tanks leaving / pulling out.
I have so many open threads and I want to work on all of them!
Thank You and Good Night!
Jean J
