coming in fast. One hit the fox
hole next to mine. I shouted to
the two boys who were in that hole
to ask If they were all right--a use
less question.
That night was sleepless one
and night Of hell. Those -
couldn't move us out, but ! admit
we wouldn't have lasted much longer
II help hadn't arrived soon.
"At 2 pm. we heard a lot of
tanks coming down the road and
figured this was the end. But they
weren't Jerry tanks, they were eight
British Cromwell tanks. II the lead
hadn't been flying so thickly I
would have run out and kissed them.
with the added strength of the
tanks we went into the attack. The
battle lasted three hours and we
only lost one tank. Jerry lost about
900 dead and wounded and 1,4O0
prisoners.
Those were two days don't care
to go over again.
THE following day (the third day
after the landing) I went along in
support Of tanks. There were 10 Of
US and 2 tank in our group. We
walked asfew PAGES in front Of the
tank and when we came to some
thing tough we would have the tank
spray it with machine-gun fire or
fire on 1t with big gun. We came
to an open cornfield that looked
quite harmless, but we didn't want
to take chance, SO I asked the
tank to fire on it. We got 19 ferries
out Of there and picked up five
German pistols.
I'm the 2 miles we covered that
day we captured or killed over 200
men. Our losses were few.
Three days later I went up to
Hell's highway with two other para
troopers and a British outfit to see
if We could get some transportation
to my unit. We found an old Ger
man staff car left behind by the
Nazis in their retreat and got it
running. 1t was dark when we
started back to our outfit and we
did not get far. Jerry had cut the
highway and knocked out an entire
British convoy, killing over 300
Those Engnshmen didn't have a
chance.
Since I couldn't get back to my
unit I joined another and fought

Front Line Letter
Tells Of Heavy Fire

First 1t. Charles A. Wirt's in
fantry unit in Belgium recently
captured so many Germans in one
day that the prisoners outnumbered
the men in his company.
In letter to his parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Alvin B. Writ, 3142 Quesada
street NV, 1t. Writ wrote: II am
right on the front line at this mo-
ment. There is so much noise that
I can't even hear myself write.
Excuse the pencil and captured
German stationery. ff -+.I
"I am now with the fabulous,
fighting 1st Division. There Is little
I can imagine that I haven't been
through. We have had some losses
and they are hard to take. Not long
ago we were under terrific fire, and
the man on either side Of me was
hit. Any talk of the war being over
may be OK in the States, but 1t is
mockery to the men here. In one
day, not long ago. We took more
prisoners than we have men in our
own company.
II like Belgium better than any of
the four countries I've seen since
April. The people are much closer
to our standards Of living. 1t is a
beautiful land, and modern.
I'VE have now been not days but
weeks in campaign-without rest,
without q letup. We are dirty, un-
shaved. and our clothes are worn
out. Wrote you letter last week.
but before I could mail it we moved
into the attack once more. 1t Is a
tremendous battle now. These ia
natics seem determined to make 1t
a last-ditch, last-man fight here. So
it looks like 1t will be longer and
more horrible than we expected. I
just hope we have the foresight to
make lasting peace this time"

fighting near Aachen and was
awarded the Purple Heart with
Cluster. His regiment was awarded
