There is a place where no birds sing. A place that still oozes horror, and evil seems to hang on the ivy covered walls of that long deserted place.
Orador sur Glan... Where the das Reich SS Panzer Div shot every man in the town put the bodies inthe houses gathered the women and children in the church and then burned them alive, with SS Grenadiers outside ready to cut down any that escaped from the Church windows.
Then they burned the little town to the ground.
That place has been left just as it was 63 years ago. The French dont like going there, they built a new town a short distance away.
It was a revenge atrocity. Even then they got the wrong place.
Anyone been to Orador? I would like to know what they feel about the place? sadly that was not the only savage atrocity on the way North to Normandy.
It is with some pride and satisfaction to me, that Das Reich was caught in the Falaise Pocket and subjected to a slaughtering barrage over open sights.
