dond Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 By that stage of the war I'm sure that sentiment was gaining popularity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chip Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 ....what Wahl does mention is how all the officers in the unit seem to have no interest in being involved in combat, the front or the war.He complains that you never see any of them in the trenches and dug outs...Chris,That said, I don't think that lessens York's achievements on that day. If the German unit's sentiment at that time turns you off, I'd be happy to have that document! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never gre up with the story and only read about it a couple of years ago, so I come into it "untainted"... But it seems there are two camps... those who believe it 1000%... and see any critical discussion as sacriledge... and those who kind of look down on the account, and dont take into account that even if less dramatic than portrayed... it was still a brave action.
