Battle Of Bulge Reminds Us

Of Drago, Nader’s Sacrifice

To the Editor:

It’s always the right time to be thankful for our veterans who have served selflessly around the world so that we at home can live in peace.

The 75th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge reminds me of the privations and sacrifice these magnificent soldiers faced all those years ago.

I recommend Academy Award winning movie, “Patton,” to see a depiction of the frozen hell that came crashing down upon the hundreds of thousands of American heroes who were literally sacrificing life and limb to free the world from the grip of Nazi tyranny.

And, yes, we have two of those heroes living and thriving among us, the incomparable Tony Drago and Sam Nader.
