Thanks for creating the site. My Grandfather was a fuel truck driver with the 743rd tank battalion. His name was Einar Sorensen, he lived until the ripe old age of 96 and sadly passed some eight years ago. He was originally from Nykobing Mors in Denmark and immigrated when he was eighteen and settled in St. Edwards, Nebraska. I remember him telling the story of fighting so close to where he was born and wanted to visit but was never able to during the war. I will always miss him but was and still am proud of his service!

Thanks for this, it’s wonderful. My Grandfather was Sgt. Leo F. Roche (Recon/HQ). I’m able to share this valuable history with my teenage son Andrew Leo so it’s never forgotten.

I attended a presentation today, June 28, 2018, by your friend Arne Goldman in Simsbury CT, USA. about your website and the very moving adoption program at the Margraten Cemetery. Arne showed a video of the presentation you made (to the Rotary) while on your recent to the USA. Thank you and the other adopting families for their humanitarian kinship. The Margraten Cemetery adoption story is emotional and very memorable. Thank you. David Emott

Ik maakte al enkele keren gebruik van je self-guided tour in Henri-Chapelle. Ik ben dus heel blij dat ik over die informatie kan beschikken om bezoekers kennis te laten met deze begraafplaats. Omdat ik zelf intussen ook over de vermelde soldaten een en ander heb gevonden, zou ik je graag enkele opmerkingen sturen. Kan dat via e-mail?

My uncle, Capt Ernest J. Aas, served in the 743rd and was awarded the Silver Star. I am looking for any details that you might have.

Het is onvoorstelbaar voor ons om je in te leven in die periode. Wat deze mensen hebben gedaan voor onze bevrijding....
Niks anders dan "Chappeau"
Wou dat ik daar was in die tijd....

Ik heb gekeken naar de documentaire:Het zijn maar Duitsers. Steeds werd er een liedje gespeeld, dat ik van vroeger kende. Maar ik kan de woorden van het lied niet meer bedenken. Zou u mij die woorden kunnen sturen? Een regel was volgens mij: ..einen andern kennst du nicht....
Hartelijk dank voor het meedenken.
