He was in that region , they took Brussels on the break
out from Normandy before joing the drive towards Antwerp
and then Arnhem.
I was one of the bombardirs that took out the bridge at Arnhem a few weeks
aftere the battle since the Germans were using it to reinforce an island in the
river.
During the Battle of the Bulge his unit was moved to the Dinant
area where along with American forces they blocked the German
path to the Meuse.
I know Dinant well and spent a good deal of time there. Was your dad with XXX
th corps? Those guys were all over that area and I knew many of them..
