"A"
Battery 1/83rd Artillery, at FSB Bastogne 1970 |

Artillery. Look around the 6:00 minute mark for
the 1/83rd.
Neal Schwartz also sent this video (no
sound on this video). Here is what Neal had to say...
"I was kicking around the web looking for some info on a buddy of
mine that was WWII 101st AB 502nd
Parachute Infantry Division 2nd Battalion Company
B, and somehow happened to stumble on a documentary that I
clipped a short video from. When I saw the sign it looked darn
familiar. It was so cool to find it out there lost in a world of
videos on the net. It would be interesting if any of the guys might
be able to identify any of the crew. Its a little grainy, but
someone might recognize themselves from A Battery at Bastogne . I
dont know the time frame; it came from a XXIV Corps documentary so
it was probably not filmed by one of ours."

from Barney Downey...
"That video is 1st. gun section, (the gun I was on), the gunner is
an E-5 that was our gun chief for a short time, the assistant gunner
is a guy nick-named "Pollack", can't remember his real name and the
third guy I can't get a good enough look at his face to know who
that is.
That would be 1970
as Neal guessed earlier. I could've been on the ground since I
primarily humped "joes" and worked the powder bunker as
well.......... wow, that took me back to Bastogne in an instant." |
