Germans Screamed The Same As Us

I saw some horrify-, some terrible thing I'll never forget there. At Apeldoorn, it always seemed to me that we were going north, but I think we were going west from... And on the outskirts of Apeldoorn, Apeldoorn is a, that't the capital of that province... There was a road junction there. We had to turn left and it was a big bunker, German bunker there, and there was machine gunners in it. It was a bad spot. We were held up there for half a day, and it's the first time I was ever was with the tanks that I saw them use them flame throwers. They went in there with the flame throwers, into the bunker thing. And I guess this, just like a tar thats shoots out there a hundred yards or fifty yards and then burst into flame. it was. It went right through the hole where the machine guns were and, anyway... I shouldn't say that tank, there were two tanks went in there. Just all of a sudden, of course, everything was blast away and burning. There must have been eight or ten Germans come running out of there and running to the right all on fire and screaming. We just had to shoot them. ‘Course they had this tar stuffs all over them, burning, I thought, isn't that a hell of a thing. OK, they were Germans but, they were screaming just the same as us.
