Roy Niceswanger Killed October 8th in Metz France .
Description,..The Battle of Metz was a battle fought during World War II at the city of Metz, France, from late September 1944 through mid-December between the U.S. Third Army commanded by Lieutenant General George Patton and the German Army commanded by General Otto von Knobelsdorff. Wikipedia



Dads only older brother Roy. His remains did not come back for 2 years. Dad was in the Philippines at the time fighting in Manila, then awaiting the land invasion of Japan. And people wonder why I still refuse to buy Japs cars. So glad we dropped the A bomb as a land invasion might have, in all probability kept me and brother John from ever being born
