By the autumn of 1944, the Allies had driven across France and Belgium and reached the borders of Germany. Ahead of them lay the Rhine — a vast natural barrier and the last line of defence protecting the heart of the Reich. What followed was some of the most intense and costly fighting of the war in Western Europe. From the bitter battles around Aachen and the Hürtgen Forest, through the crossing operations of Plunder and Varsity, to the dramatic capture of the bridge at Remagen, the campaign for the Rhineland was brutal, chaotic, and often overshadowed by the more famous Battle of the Bulge. Yet it was here, on both sides of the Rhine, that the final collapse of Nazi Germany truly began. To help tell that story, I'm joined by military historian Anthony Tucker-Jones, author of Rhineland, which charts the campaign from the German border battles of late 1944 through to the end of the war in 1945.

Montgomery, commanding ground forces for D-Day, gave a "scintillating" and persuasive briefing on his revised Overlord plan. He set objectives in Normandy, like capturing Caen, that were perhaps beyond the means of his exhausted British troops, worsening his relationship with American generals. Montgomery's Operation Market Garden failed to achieve its objectives; the absence of his trusted chief of staff, Freddy Duingan, removed a critical checks and balances system. Rommel showed moral courage by standing up to Hitler in June 1944, arguing the war was over and negotiations were necessary. Patton's swift repositioning of his Third Army to relieve Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge was his finest hour, surprising both allies and Germans.

Father of Cold Spring resident sketched Nazis at Nuremberg Eighty years ago this week, on Nov. 20, 1945, trials began in Nuremberg, Germany, for nearly 200 Nazis charged with crimes against humanity, including the killing of an estimated six million Jewish, Roma, gay and disabled people during the Holocaust. The international military tribunal is the subject of a new film starring Russell Crowe, who portrays Hermann Göring, the second most powerful man in Germany during World War II, behind Adolf Hitler. For Cold Spring resident Cassandra Saulter, the courtroom drama that unfolded at the Nuremberg Palace of Justice is more personal. Her father was among the U.S. soldiers assigned to guard the 22 major defendants, and he got Göring. Howard Saulter grew up in Queens and joined the Army at age 19. A private first class, he fought in late 1944 in the Battle of the Bulge in Belgium's Ardennes Forest. Germany surrendered the following spring, and that fall, Saulter was assigned to guard the accused in court and its adjacent prison. The guards worked every other day on a rotation of two hours on duty followed by four hours off. Initially, each man monitored three prisoners. But after Robert Ley, a labor leader who once received a gift of a million Reichsmarks from Hitler, committed suicide on Oct. 25, each guard was assigned to one prisoner. The trials riveted people around the world, but for the guards, it was tedious. Saulter began drawing the defendants in their cells out of boredom. Interviewed in 1946 by The New York Times, he said: "I hated the job. I decided to sketch a few of the prisoners in their cells, and it helped a lot." "He thought he might sell the drawings to raise money to attend the Art Students League," said his daughter. Göring may have been one of the most infamous of the Nazis on trial, but Howard Saulter remembered him as a model prisoner. "Göring was the most pleasant on the whole, the best behaved and the best sense of humor," he told his daughter. "Every day, when he returned to his cell after exercise, he'd say to me, 'Well, here we are home again.'" But when Saulter asked the German for his fine leather boots, saying, "You're not going to need them where you're going," Göring was not amused. "He usually had a sense of humor - that was the only time Göring blew up," said Cassandra. "Usually, they had interesting conversations."

(AP) Göring was convicted of war crimes but swallowed a cyanide pill the night before his scheduled execution. It was never clear how he got the poison, but Cassandra said her mother, Lillian, had a plausible hypothesis. "My father used to fall asleep, especially when bored - he had narcolepsy," Cassandra said. Her mother wondered if Göring's lawyer waited until Howard nodded off, then passed the pill to his client, possibly inside a pencil, and Göring hid it in the toilet. Saulter never sketched Göring, to his regret, but he did draw Baldur von Schirach (the former leader of the Hitler Youth and commandant in Vienna who was sentenced to 20 years), Franz von Papen (a former vice chancellor and ambassador who was acquitted but sentenced by a civilian court to eight years), Wilhelm Frick (the interior minister, who was hanged) and Arthur Seyss-Inquart (the commander of the occupied Netherlands, also hanged). Only von Papen realized he was being sketched. All four autographed their drawings. Saulter also sketched Albert Speer (the minister of armaments and war production, who w...

Sydney Levit was 17 years old when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. Like most kids his age, he was eager to serve. In 1943, Levit was drafted into the U.S. Army and he soon had the opportunity to join the airborne, training as a paratrooper and also with gliders. He became part of the 17th Airborne Division.In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Levit describes the rigorous training he went through as part of the airborne, including his first jump out of an airplane and learning how gliders work. He then explains how his unit spent months training in England, waiting to enter the fight. Their first action was at Malmedy and was both vicious and chaotic.Levit details the logistical fight against the Germans at the Bulge and the separate struggle against the brutal and unrelenting cold that was also a daily fight to stay alive.Then, Levit takes us into Operation Varsity, the massive airborne campaign designed to help the Allies cross the Rhine River. Yet, very few Americans are even aware of it.Levit also shares memorable moments away from the fighting, including his interactions with prisoners, being stunned by the death of President Roosevelt, and being surprised when a Hollywood star just popped into his tent.

Today, we explored what it truly means to stand firm in the spiritual battles we face as followers of Jesus. Drawing from the imagery of the Battle of the Bulge in World War II, we recognized that, like those soldiers, we are often caught off guard, facing not just one enemy but multiple adversaries: Satan, our own flesh, and the world's system that opposes God. Yet, the victory is not something we strive to achieve—it has already been won by Jesus through His death and resurrection. Our calling is not to fight for victory, but to stand firm in the victory Christ has secured for us.We looked at the context of the Ephesian church, a community surrounded by spiritual opposition and false teaching, and saw how Paul, even from prison, urged them to be strong in the Lord and to put on the full armor of God. This armor is not our own; it is God's, and it is both a gift and a command to take up daily. The battle is not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces, and so our preparation must be spiritual as well.The armor begins and ends with truth—God's Word is the foundation and the weapon. We must saturate ourselves in Scripture, not just for knowledge, but so that we can recognize and refute the enemy's lies. The breastplate of righteousness reminds us that our right standing with God is a gift, not something we earn, and it guards our hearts against accusation and condemnation. The shoes of the gospel of peace give us stability, reminding us daily of the peace we have with God and the call to bring that peace to others. The shield of faith is not just for individual defense but is most effective in community, as we stand together, supporting one another. Finally, the helmet of salvation protects our minds from despair and doubt, anchoring us in the finished work of Christ.We are not left ill-equipped. God has given us everything we need to stand firm, but we must intentionally put on this armor each day, remembering who we are in Christ, and living out that identity in the power of the Holy Spirit.Youtube Chapters[00:00] - Welcome[00:09] - Series Recap and Introduction[01:11] - The Battle of the Bulge: A Picture of Standing Firm[03:14] - The Surprise Attack and Holding the Line[05:21] - Spiritual Warfare: Our Real Enemies[07:51] - Standing in Christ's Victory[10:35] - The Spiritual Climate in Ephesus[12:49] - The Sons of Sceva: Authority in Christ[15:03] - Relationship vs. Religion[19:00] - The Armor of God: God's Equipment, Not Ours[23:41] - Strength Through Surrender[25:13] - Dressing for Battle Daily[28:21] - The Best Equipment: Roman Armor and Spiritual Armor[30:38] - The Belt of Truth: Girding Up for Battle[34:53] - The Sword of the Spirit: Bookending with God's Word[39:39] - The Breastplate of Righteousness: Guarding the Heart[48:15] - Shoes of Peace: Standing Firm in the Gospel[53:35] - The Shield of Faith: Community and Formation[57:48] - The Helmet of Salvation and Communion[63:23] - Worship and Communion as Spiritual Warfare

Despite executive actions and legislative wins, they argue that threats persist through hidden DEI programs, banking restrictions, and policy reversals — demanding vigilance, relationships with lawmakers, and principled advocacy.

In this episode, retired Marine Intelligence Officer LtCol. Hal Kempfer breaks down Russia's long pattern of external aggression and why its latest gamble in Ukraine could mark a decisive turning point. From Georgia in 2008, Crimea in 2014, to the full-scale invasion of 2022, Russia has repeatedly turned outward to mask domestic weakness and economic stagnation. Kempfer explains how Vladimir Putin miscalculated Europe's resolve, underestimated Ukrainian nationalism, and crippled Russia's military strength through corruption and cronyism. Now, with Russia massing over 100,000 troops along with tanks and armor in the Donbas, the stage is set for what may become the war's decisive battle—a moment reminiscent of the Battle of the Bulge or Russia's own collapse in 1917. Will this offensive break Ukraine's defenses, or will it shatter Russia's will to fight? The outcome could shape not only the future of Ukraine but the global balance of power.Takeaways:Russia's invasions are rooted in autocratic leaders seeking external distractions from domestic failures.Putin misunderstands capitalism and macroeconomics but wields corruption and adventurism.Russia's petro-state economy is its core vulnerability, not a strength.Putin's belief of Europe's dependence on Russian energy backfired.Corruption hollowed out Russia's military, undermining its effectiveness in Ukraine.Current territorial gains come at unsustainable human and material cost.A major Russian offensive in the Donbas could be decisive—success or failure will redefine the war.Western support is critical now; the window to shift momentum is rapidly closing. #STRATPodcast #HalKempfer #MutualBroadcastingSystem #StrategicRiskAnalysis #RussiaUkraineWar #DecisiveBattle #PutinStrategy #UkraineDefense #Geopolitics #MilitaryAnalysis #BattleOfDonbas #RussiaSanctions #GlobalSecurity #WarInUkraine #PetrostateEconomy #RussianMilitary #UkraineSupport #NATOResponse #Clauswitz #NapoleonicWars

Petty Officer George “Curt” Davison (USN) and Cpl Tom Lacey Cpl Tom LaceyTom grew up on Wheaton, IL and enlisted into the Army on July 15, 1943. After completing Basic at Camp Fannin, Tom volunteered and completed Radio School (FM SCR 300s) at Camp Maxey and was then assigned Company C, 99th Infantry Division. After arriving in Liverpool Oct 1944, Tom was deployed to the ETO 3 weeks later and was trucked to the Siegfried line near Krinkelt and then battled in the Hurtgen Forest Campaign. On Dec 16, 1944, Tom was awoken to heavy barrage at the start of the Battle of the Bulge. The 99th defensive positions were overrun by several German companies after a rolling barrage. While Tom was engaged in several small arms skirmishes, air to air combat raged overhead. Tom lived through relentless artillery barrages from both the enemy and US 105s and helped evacuate one of his buddie’s (Red Netter) who had been hit. The 99th withdrew to an advantageous strategic position on the Elsenborn Ridge. Tom spent the next 3-4 days along with Sgt Baker (C Co) within foxholes on this infamous ridge, defending their position from the onslaught of German forces. The 99th assisted with a counterattack led by Shermans in the 9th Armored. Tom and his comrades in the 99th were the 1st to cross the Rhine at the bridge at Remagen in March 1944 despite being shelled by devastating 88 mm artillery fire. Tom was discharged at Ft Lewis on Feb 2, 1946. Tom leaves us with the following pearls: There is little correlation between rank and leadership, basic training is effective, the GI was not only a good soldier, but a good innovator, medics were brave, well-trained and effective, the Red Ball Express was instrumental in US victory, never hate your enemy, everyone has something good to offer to the world, you never know where the next hero will come from and pray daily to your guardian angel. Petty Officer George “Curt” Davison (USN)PO Davison (99 years old) served as an Electrician’s Mate on the Destroyer Escort U.S.S. Rudderow that travelled to nearly 30 locations in the Pacific Theatre of Operations from 1943 to 1946. The USS Rudderow participated in submarine hunter-killer patrols, escort of resupply and troop reinforcement convoys and oversaw landings of landing crafts. Curt observed the suicide attacks on US ships by enemy pilots and the impact of a severe typhoon on his ship to the extent that the deck was under water. Curt’s ship also carried some of the soldiers who had survived the Battaan Death March after their release from prison camps. Curt was honorably discharged from the Navy in the summer of 1946. Curt believes that being in the Navy was an adventure and enabled him to see many places and become good friends with many sailors throughout the US. Curt recommends that no matter what your age, that you should stay active as he has been awarded thousands of medals and holds several state, five national and one world record as a Senior Olympian.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This is the VIC 4 VETS, Weekly Honored Veteran. SUBMITTED BY: Neal Westhoff Charles H. Gnade, Pronounced-(Ga nade ee) Vic and Ken, There’s a man in our parish, his name is Charlie Gnade. He turned 101 yesterday, August 26. He fought in World War II under General Patton. He came into the area where the battle of the bulge was when that battle was over. He’s still pretty sharp. Military Service: He served in the United States Army with the 90th Infantry Division during World War II. Award Recognition: He is reported to have received the Silver Star, one of the U.S. military’s highest decorations for gallantry under fire, awarded under General Orders No. 571 (1945). The Silver Star is awarded for “gallantry in action against an enemy of the United States,” marking Charles H. Gnade as someone who likely exhibited extraordinary bravery during combat. Being tied to the 90th Infantry Division connects him to some of the most intense fighting in the European Theater—operations in Normandy, France, and into the heart of Germany.At the age of 19, Charles was drafted into the Army and served 22 months un General George S. Patton. He was a private, first class in the 90th division of the 359th Texas/Oklahoma infantry of the Battle of The Bulge during WWII. He was awarded the Silver Star for single handed capture of prisoners. Grateful for the opportunity to serve his country, he says the world is much different now than when he enlisted. I was proud to serve my country during WWII but I did not go to war to see my country in such divide and turmoil as it is today. It makes me very sad. I didn’t go to war to fight for this he said. For the past 77 years, Gnade has been a member of American Legion in Old Monroe as well as a member of the VFW. In 2022, he was awarded the Unsung Hero Award from the Old Monroe American Legion. Among his top achievements in life, he says being a farmer and making his first communion as well as his married life count for some of his proudest life accomplishments. Charlie has been widowed two times, Marita Hoelting Gnade and second wife Dorothy (Dot) McGee Gnade. ________________________________________________________________ This Week’s VIC 4 VETS, Honored Veteran on NewsTalkSTL.With support from our friends at:Alamo Military Collectables, H.E.R.O.E.S.

In this episode of Building the Base, Hondo Geurts and Lauren Bedula sit down with Congressman Pat Harrigan (NC-10), who brings a rare combination of Special Forces experience, defense entrepreneurship, and fresh congressional perspective to America's national security challenges. Drawing from his service in 3rd Special Forces Group, his journey building a weapons and munitions manufacturing company, and his current role on the House Armed Services Committee, Congressman Harrigan discusses the urgent need to revolutionize America's defense industrial base. He shares his candid assessment of government as "a terrible customer," explains his groundbreaking Sky Foundry initiative to build America's first million-drone manufacturing capability, and warns that the nature of warfare has fundamentally changed from the Global War on Terror era. The conversation explores why America must shift from producing "high cost problems to our enemies' low cost solutions" to creating affordable, scalable technologies that can match the pace of modern conflict.Five key takeaways from today's episode:Personal inspiration drives public service, as Rep. Harrigan reveals how his grandfather's vivid memories of D-Day and the Battle of the Bulge, details he could recite perfectly even with dementia, showed him "what a formative part of his life he made a huge difference for the trajectory of the world," inspiring his own call to serve when he witnessed leadership failures during Afghanistan's fall.The nature of warfare has fundamentally changed, Congressman Harrigan explains, comparing the shift from the Global War on Terror to today's drone-dominated battlefield as the difference between "basketball and baseball" with 80% of casualties in Ukraine now caused by small, inexpensive FPV drones rather than traditional weapons systems.America currently sits at "effectively zero" drone manufacturing capability while being wholly dependent on Chinese supply chains, Rep. Harrigan warns, as adversaries like Russia and Ukraine produce millions of drones annually at costs dramatically lower than America's $20,000-30,000 per unit.The Sky Foundry initiative represents a revolutionary approach to defense manufacturing, combining government-owned facilities with private contractor intellectual property through a royalty-based system that incentivizes innovation while maintaining competition and driving costs down to $500 per drone.Success requires unwavering persistence, Rep. Harrigan emphasizes, sharing his philosophy of "never give up, never give in" when fighting for his daughters Reagan and McKinley's future, because "there is no substitute for victory" and breakthrough solutions will eventually succeed if you believe in them and keep working regardless of initial resistance.

All of his brilliance is magnified by the fact that he doesn't record his first win until he is 25 years old. He misses three years of Major League baseball in service to the United States during World War II. During the war, he is a hero at the Battle of the Bulge in Bastogne, Belgium. His exploits defending the Ramagen Bridge in Germany, earns him a battlefield promotion, a Purple Heart, a Bronze Star, and a Presidential Citation, making him the most decorated Major League player during World War II.
