The bridge that your Dad told you about was at Remagan. The RR bridge(LUDENDORFF) was heavily damaged and it was a matter of time before it collapsed. The 9th armored division took that bridge and established a bridgehead on the east bank.. To keep reinforcements coming. A pontoon bridge was built just north of the LUDENDORFF. It is true. Many engeneers were lost due to fire from German 88s. They even fired V! rockets in attempt to knock it out. I know. I was there |
