i think these incedences are diffent in that
the malmady massacre was cold blooded
the dachow (cant spell) incident was hot blooded
hue to what they found there
two different emotions
niether excusable
but one understandable

Re: The Malmedy Massacre Photo
hi ian..
i disagree totally..
both acts of murder..
but according to wartime reports
US soldiers at malmedy were trying to escape
SS pows didnt have that chance,,
and it has to be remembered these were not
camp personal..
far from it..
combat soldiers.who wrongly believed
assurances would be honoured
and as far as im concerned..
the indian american soldier who started shooting
is as guilty as any other war criminal..
the winners write history..
whether it be right or not
cheers

thanks for puting me right i allways thought they were camp personel who would have ,,,,kind of ,,,,deserved it ???
no commbat soldiers which ever side they are on deserve to meet that kind of end
and yes if thats the case the purpotrators are war criminals
cheers ian

Re: The Malmedy Massacre Photo

Re: The Malmedy Massacre Photo
