Captured from a German Officer

Roadkill,

In addition to what you said about the German Officers, may fail to think about the uniform of a German soldier. They had eppulets on the shoulders, ribbons and medals on their uniform. This was only on officer uniforms in the US Army. So an 18 year old US soldier who got a pistol from a German private with a heavy machine gun, may have looked like an officer. This is my reasoning for all the vet returns to have come from officers.
