THE STORY of an unsung unit of Second Word War soldiers who stood alongside the infamous ???Band of Brothers??? as they often fought to the last man to repel Hitler???s last big offensive has been released in a new book detailing their previously little reported struggle. Images show how this unknown band of brothers dug into fox holes in the middle of the snowy Ardennes forest as they wait for the German army to advance, while others see troops stood over the bodies of their fallen comrades. In another picture, a soldier can be seen aiming his rifle at a group of German prisoners, moving them on as they walk with their hands over their heads. The images are from the new book The 110th Holds in the Ardennes by Walter S. Zapotoczny Jr, which tells the tale of how the 110th infantry 28th division held a line through the formidable Ardennes forest against the might of Hitler???s army / Fonthill Media / mediadrumworld.com
