WTF?

Dr Tyger posted a quote from Joe Toye about Patton "saving" the 101st. Darth replied, on a personal note, my grandfather was a tanker in the 4th Armored Div and his unit spearheaded Patton's counterattack at Bastogne.

Where's the confusion? The post hasn't been deleted. Read the thread...



don't bother, it's gone totally over his head. Either he's an idiot, a dick, or both.

ETA For those who don't understand what's going on. The 101st & 10th were cut off and encircled in Bastogne. Gen. Patton's 4th Armored Div (which my grandfather was a member of) was the division that broke through the German line around Bastogne and relieved the 101st Airborne & 10th Armored.

Yankeeundercover is the tool. I responded to VAbuckeye because his was the last post and the second one that was confused.
