Ms. Bondi, or anyone else, do you know where this action (land mines and vehicles)took place? My dad (now deceased)described a incident that sounds similar to this. He said that he and two soldiers took land mines and stopped vehicles with them near a bridge. He didn't remember the other guys names, and may not have known them since a lot of people were thrown together that didn't know each other in all the confusion of the battle of the bulge. Thanks.

I'm the daughter of Nick Kartsounes. This was so wonderful to find. Thank you. I'm sorry he wasn't still here to see this as I'm sure he never imagined this would show up. If anyone has any more such information or pictures, please send them to me as it means so much to us kids. Thanks.
