Hi Jerry,

Yes, you hit on the problem. Munich was firmly in Nazi hands in December, 1944. See my post above. In December 1944 we were fighting for your lives and the outcome of the war in the Ardennes. The only incursion into Germany itself had occured just weeks earlier in the Aachen area, which is above the Ardennes and just North of the Hurtgen Forrest. The Germans promptly took Aachen back and it was not until the end of January, 1945 that we again crossed the Siegfried line into Germany itself.
This is why I suggested that they possibly meant 1945.
