Default Battle of the Bulge Vet

Though some of you might be interested in this story about one of our local WW II vets. This man has a remarkable story about surviving being captured and escaping during the Battle of The Bulge.

Mr. Haynes is the father of one of my wife's high school friends. His son and wife are also friends of ours today. This story first appeared several years ago on the anniversary of the battle and was reprinted this year. I meet the man years ago and like most heroes of that generation he never mentioned his experience. Not many of that generation left, unfortunately.
