UMNS IN FRANCE, Aug. IA. Q2
Non)-(UP)-In the past "a hours
have seen this column ripping to
shreds the crack SIS Das Reich
division and the division named
for Adolf Hitler himself, as it car
ried out an important secret mis-
sion.
The nature of that mission is
a military secret but I am able to
reveal that these faSt-rolling Yankee
soldiers boWled the enemy over with
ar impact that shattered his morale
and left him broken into disor-
ganized pockets or standing in
herds at the roadside, covering
and waiting to be herded into the
prisoner pens.

reveal that the column pentrated
northward from lie Mans through
Alencon, taking the Germans by
surprise when they thought the
Americans were headed eastward for
Paris. The object of this change
would be to trap the Germans be-
tween the advancing U. S. armor
and the British-Canadian advance
beyond Caen.)
Riding at the forefront of the
column, l saw 20 French Villages

We arrived in one village to find
the toTIiSpeople Stoning the win

buried somewhere in the vortex
of an angry crowd. From the shouts
OF the French it was obvious that
he was paying for having catered
to the Germans.
One woman drew her hand across
her throat and screamed: String
him up!"
stopped my jeep beside her and
asked what the man had done.
HAD NEIGHBOR SHOT
Many Frenchmen in this village
have been shot on the basis of
this mans denunciation," she ex-
planned.
In some of the villages we were
greeted with champagne and flow
ers. The Germans continued to
fight from others and we cut
through them, leaving the woods
and fields full of bewildered she'll

around hours after our passage
