  New video with new ambient battle sounds! Let me know what you think! Also, more footage of Normandy hedgerow fighting, some of it very graphic, will be posted on Patreon. You can subscribe for free and upgrade when and if you want to a higher tier. There is also a new chat feature for now available only on the app, which I&apos;ve never used before. Maybe I will use it to chat about Masters of the air after it&apos;s been released.<br><a href="https://www.patreon.com/wwiiepicbattles">https://www.patreon.com/wwiiepicbattles</a>

  My grandfather Wills M. Boquet Sr. was also a tough ombre (90th division)<br>He served as a surgical technician in the U.S. Army during World War II from August 1942 to October 1945. He served on the battlefields in Ardennes, Rhineland, Central Europe, Normandy and Northern France. After his honorable discharge, he was awarded the Eameto Medal, Good Conduct Medal and the Silver Star Medal. He worked for Texaco for 35 years and was a farmer and cattleman all his life.

  My grandfather was in the 357th. T/SGT Theodore Ruther. He managed to make it all the way through the war with 2 purple hearts. His PTSD was severe after the war. i cant imagine the things these men saw.

  My great great uncle PFC. Andrew Matzko fought with the Company I, 3rd Battalion, 357th infantry regiment of the 90th Division with an MOS of gunner(I assume BAR). &nbsp;He received his Combat Infantry Badge on June 10 during this engagement. <br><br>He was KIA November 9, 1944, most likely during the Moselle River crossing and ensuing battle near Kœnigsmacker. <br><br>I gather most of this information from his service records from the National Archive. <br><br>Thank you for this video.

  Sad to see this not gain the amount of views it deserves, yes there are already many large channels doing this kind of content but this is really well made and researched and deserves more, hope you get more views soon.
