One of the places I work is a rural hospital with an elderly community. Many patients are WWII vets and one of them shared a story today. He told me about having his position over run by Germans and becoming a POW for 15 months. They had orders not to surrender the hill they had and did their best to hold it. He described how he and the men in his platoon were out-flanked by the Germans and finally did surrender. As you can imagine not all of the men survived and it was touching to say the least to hear him retell the accounts of what took place.
Just thought I'd share a unique experience, these guys are getting fewer and fewer in number each day.
