I started doing this at the request of the some of the authors so they are not “robbed” in their words of any visitors nor subscribers. I will no longer be putting story excerpts with links to the originating site as some of the websites have got quite angry over this practice, even though it is a legally acceptable practice. I did not want to stop posting stories like this since I enjoy reading and sharing them so much, so I am following the advice of my lawyer an going with ONLY posting the Story link from now on. Thanks for Reading.-SF

So many times when you read about the ETO in WW2 you only get the American side of things. This is a fantastic story of why the German Wermacht was such a fierce and unrelenting opponent: PROFESSIONAL, QUALITY SOLDIERS.

🙂 I would have used the title, and on my page, I underline titles to show thatthey are links, or tie the link to a picture, with that notation.. Thanks
I added a notation with a nice big * by it, just for you Eagle. 🙂
Thanks for this posting. Ortiz’s actions were absolutely staggering, making Hollywood’s fictional war stories (The Dirty Dozen, The Guns of Navarone to name a few) seem ridiculous in comparison.
He seemed to take great pleasure in flaunting his presence; wearing his uniform knowing the Germans had a vested interest in his capture? I wouldn’t call him crazy; yet in doing so he was, in a sense, painting a target on himself and the men working with him. Safe to say the word “discretion” wasn’t in his vocabulary.
