[QUOTE="galcock, post: 61127, member: 5718"] Bob what a quick reply - no Dad's cottage is at a place called Koecking Bois in Alsace Lorraine. He had three SAS with him - for some reason he did not shoot one of the shocked German soldiers who had been upstairs at the time he shot his comrades at point blank range. He told me this man had red hair - dad turned and ran off into the woods and then had to shoot his pursuers - 3 out of 4 were shot here. Father has the honour of being probably the only SAS soldier to have captured an American front line position - General Patton's men. Bob I once paid for two American intelligence reports from the National Archive in Maryland which record my father and his men coming into their lines in 1944. Father never had a high respect for the typical American soldier. When I lived on the SAS base at Hereford, as a 16 year old, we had over to dinner 2 American officers -they were the start of the American special forces -both very tall men. Graham [/QUOTE]
