The Battle of Alsace (Operation Nordwind) , presented by Bill Cosgrove
Operation “Nordwind” (Northwind) was
launched by the German Army on New Year’s Eve, 1944 into the Alsace area of
eastern France. Our presenter, Bill
Cosgrove, who has recently visited the battle area with Rod Davis, the Athens
area coordinator for the “Witness to War” program, will discuss the importance
of the battle to American infantry. The
talk will also feature many “then and now” photos which highlight this bitter
battle in the Low Voges Mountains and Rhine River plain.
