  1. Volunteered to go with the Hammelburg Raiders. One of few to escape.
  2. Escaped the POW camp living 7 days and nights without food in the woods and finally working his way to the 45th division.
  3. Col. William Claude Scales was awarded a Purple Heart for being wounded in the Battle of the Bulge in WW II, as well as POW medal. He said, "I would never have received a Good Conduct Medal for I was known as the soldier that was demoted the most". That was said modestly, for a movie could be made about his heroics after being captured twice by the Germans, tortured and finally escaped. He told of the horrors of unkind German soldiers, for each time a U.S. bombing attack occured near the Stalag, one POW would be systematically shot. 75% of all escapees were shot on site when captured, a true miracle that he survived 2 escapes. He truly was a brave man. We honor you Col Scales and Company E 142nd Infantry.

Schofield, Arden T.  Asst Chaplain??? FABN/HQ CIB, POW

  2. 9-B
05/25/2011, Chatham MA
He left for England in November 1944 with a headquarters artillery company of the 106th Division. His assignment as assistant chaplain included counseling and church services where he provided organ music for the troops on a portable keyboard. It would be this intersection of his talent for music and defining experience as a WWII POW that would profoundly shape Arden Schofield's life and the thousands of people whose lives he touched until the very end. Many decades later in 2010, Schofield wrote about this experience entitled My Story, the highlights of which follow: I went to England in November 1944 with our artillery company of The 106th Division which had been activated in 1943. When we arrived in France we traveled by jeep through the country where we saw much destruction, yet the people were very joyful as they had already been liberated from the Germans. There was now a feeling that the war would soon be over, but that was not to last. Shortly thereafter, the infamous Battle of the Bulge, which would see the decimation of the 106th Division and the imprisonment of thousands of U.S. military personnel Schofield among them would commence. That day, December 16, 1944, Schofield recalled, All hell broke loose. Shortly after those first shots of the Battle of the Bulge, Schofield and thousands of others were captured by the Germans. In this coldest winter of the century, Schofield and others of his division were marched through the snowy Ardennes forest, herded onto box cars which were mistakenly shelled by the Royal Air Force, and imprisoned in Bad Orb, notorious as the worst of the German prisoner of war camps. Here, Mr. Schofield would endure five long months of starvation and deprivation. Wracked by dysentery and weighing just 90 pounds, Mr. Schofield was hours from death when U.S. forces, led by General George Patton, stormed the camp and liberated the surviving prisoners. In the decades to follow, Mr. Schofield would often relate how, upon returning to the U.S. as his litter was lowered to the ground, he reached down, scooped up some good American earth and ate it, so grateful was he to be returned to his beloved country and freedom.

  1. Lex completed basic training at Camp Wheeler, GA, and then spent time in the Army Specialized Training Program (ATSP) at the University of Alabama. When this program was disbanded, Lex was sent to the 106th Infantry Division, and assigned to the 422rd Regiment, to an Intelligence and Reconnaissance (I and R) platoon. Captured 12/19/1944, Lex spent the next four months as a POW in Germany, at Camp IX-B in Bad Orb, Germany. Conditions steadily worsened, and hunger and disease claimed the lives of many. Lex was finally liberated when advancing US troops overran Camp IX-B on 2 April 1945. John was moved to a field evacuation hospital, then in early May 1945 shipped to the US; he spent the time until his discharge in November 1945 at several medical facilities.

  2. TSgt James W. Russell, 35 810 272, Co. G 424th Inf do state that Pfc Donald Schultz was killed in action about 0730 hours 16 Dec 1944 in the vicinity of Berg, Germany by small arms fire. This was the first morning of the German breakthrough and the company was receiving enemy small arms fire from it's front. Pfc Schultz was in a firing trench in the company's defensive position when hit. He died almost instantly and the body was put on a stretcher and carried to behind the company supply tent. The bullet that killed Pfc Schultz passed completely through his head. His body was last seen by me at the company supply tent the same day.
  3. 1st Sgt John S. Lord, 37 125 927 Co G 424th Inf do swear that on 17 Dec 1944 I saw Pfc Donald Schultz of this company lying dead in the company area. The company was in a defensive position facing the Siegfried Line in the vicinity of Berg, Germany. The Germans started their breakthrough early in the morning of 16 Dec 1944. It was early this morning that Donald Schultz was hit in the head with small arms fire. He died almost instantly and the body was put on a stretcher, carried from the position and put behind the supply tent. The next day, 17 Dec 1944, I removed the body of Donald Schultz from the stretcher as it was needed to evacuate other wounded men. I knew the body was that of Donald Schultz as we had been in the same company in the States, had trained together there, went to England together and trained there and were together in the same company when the company took up the defensive position facing the Siegfried Line.
  4. In a telegram received Monday morning from the War Department, Mrs. Twilah Schultz of this city was informed of the death of her son, Pfc. Donald Schultz, 19, who was reported killed in action in Germany on December 16.
    The telegram reads as follows: I am deeply distressed to inform you corrected report just received states your son, Pfc. Donald Schultz who was previously reported missing in action, was killed in action on Dec. 16, in European area. The Secretary of War asks that I express his deep sympathy in your loss and his regret that unavoidable circumstances made necessary the unusual lapse of time in reporting your son’s death to you. Confirming letter follows. Mrs. Schultz was notified last January that her son had been missing in action since December 16, but she received no definite word of his death until Monday. Donald was with the 424th infantry regiment and was still in England when the last word was received from him in a letter dated Nov. 23, 1944. Pfc. Schultz was born Sept. 19, 1925, in Chilton. He graduated from Chilton high school with the class of 1943 and enlisted in the army in August, only two months following graduation. He received his basic training at Fort Benning, Ga., and was stationed in Camp Atterbury, Ind., before going overseas. Don spent a few days at his home before leaving the states last October. Survivors are his parents and three sisters, Loa Ann of Fond du Lac; Elaine and Jean of this city. Chilton Times – July 19, 1945.
  5. His grave has been adopted by Michel Lorquet, a Belgian teacher.

Hello, I am hoping you can point me in the right direction. I am conducting research in support of my book on the events around 20 December 1944, the murder of Murray Zappler and Kurt Jacobs. These 2 men were members of the IPW team 154, and came from Camp Ritchie MD. I am trying to find out the ultimate status of the remainder of this team, I believe they would have come from HQ, 106 ID.

First Lt Andrew J. Nolte, 01925311

Second Lt John W. Seale, 0925858

SSGT David Epstein

Any help on the status of these men, MIA, KIA, etc, would be very helpful.

Shearin, Hugh G. SSgt 424 INF/AWIACIB, PH 04/04/2010

Staff Sgt. Hugh Shearin, then 20, had barely been on the front lines two weeks before his unit, the 106th Infantry Division, was overrun by German soldiers in December 1944 at the Battle of the Bulge. In his division, two of the three regiments, about 8,000 soldiers, were surrounded and surrendered. 

Shearin and other members of his 12-man unit were cut off from his regiment the first night of the attack. They  wandered through the Ardennes Forest of Southern Belgium in freezing weather with no food for three days before they found the 9th Armored Division. By then, only Shearin and three others remained.

It was a savage introduction to war, and as Shearin, now 83, describes it, the details are so sharp it is hard to believe 63 years have passed. It is not a pleasant memory – no war is – but he knows it is important to remember what happened on those battlegrounds.

He wishes more people would.

"I don't expect anything special from the war, but I just don't think the people are remembered for what they did and what they went through," said Shearin of Rocky Mount.

Time is running out. Only two U.S. soldiers from World War I survive today, said Jim Benson, a spokesman for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs in Washington D.C. All too soon, people will say the same of soldiers who fought in World War II.

An average of 973 Americans who served during World War II are expected to die daily this year, Benson said. As those men and women die, the country also is losing its last links to one of the most significant events of the 20th century, he said.

The death rate is down from a year or two ago, when estimates were as high as 1,100 and 1,200 deaths a day, Benson said. As of Sept. 30, the department estimated that fewer than 2.8 million World War II veterans still are living.

"Each one takes their personal story with them, and together that is quite a significant loss of corporate cultural memory and personality," Benson said.

Most of those veterans are in their late 70s and early 80s, said W.B. Bullock, the Rocky Mount city councilman who headed up construction of the new downtown veterans' memorial. Many have outlived their friends and families. Now, men who survived bullets, mortars and horrendous living conditions are being lost to illnesses, accidents and natural causes.

"These people sacrificed a lot, and I just admire every one of them and appreciate them more than anyone would ever know," Bullock said.

On Dec. 21, only a few days after joining up with the 9th Armored, Shearin was wounded in the face and chest by a mortar shell that exploded in front of him. By Jan. 18, he was back with what was left of the 106th, now less than a third of its original strength. The men fought as a regiment for the next several months, relieving others on the front lines.

"It is just unimaginable to people who don't know, who haven't experienced it. There is no way they can know what it is like – shells falling all around you and dirt being knocked in the hole on you. You are thinking, 'Is the next shell going to be my shell?' It is just a horrible thing to go through," Shearin said.

It is a feeling George Daniel Boone of Rocky Mount remembers. Boone entered the Army on Jan. 24, 1941, when his mother lied about his age to allow him to enlist at 16. After war broke out, he was shipped overseas in mid-1942 and served in North Africa, Sicily, Italy, France and Belgium.

At the end of it, he walked away with only a burn on his arm from artillery shell. He had some close calls, but he credits his training with getting him home safely.

"Most people didn't get no training, maybe four or six weeks. I had approximately two years of training before (entering) the war," said Boone, now 83.

Stories such as Shearin's and Boone's are just as important as what people can read in the history books, said Bob Patrick, director of the Veterans History Project at the Library of Congress American Folklife Center. The facts always will be there, but the people who lived them will not.

"When we lose that last one we just lose that connection, that physical connection – someone who was there, who saw it, experienced it and can talk about it," Patrick said.

Capturing these stories before it is too late is the purpose of the Veterans History Project, which gathers firsthand stories from soldiers from World War I to now, Patrick said. Veterans can record audio and video accounts of their experiences and donate pictures and memorabilia from the wars.

For more information about participating in the project, call 888-371-5848 or go to loc.gov/vets.

"We hear it time and time again from families, particularly when they hear about this project; they say, 'Oh my gosh, I wish I had known that when my dad was alive so I could have him sit down and record his stories from the war,'" Patrick said.

When the war in Europe ended in May 1945, Shearin was working as a guard at a prison camp for about 100,000 German soldiers. Based on a point system that depended on a soldier's service, he was sent home on leave and then to the Pacific to fight the Japanese.

On Aug. 6, when his ship was still several days out of New York, the United States dropped "Little Boy," the atomic bomb, on Hiroshima. Three days later, "Fat Man" fell on Nagasaki. Japan soon surrendered.

"If I hadn't already been on the way after they dropped the atomic bomb, I would have been on the occupation force, and they would have sent the real old guys home first. So I was just lucky to be home at that point," Shearin said.

After a 30-day leave, Shearin served in the military police at Fort McPherson, Ga., until he was discharged on Nov. 15.

Journalist Tom Brokaw described the men and women of Shearin's era as the "greatest generation." Bullock thinks he hit the nail on the head.

"Lots of people don't know anything about what they did 60 years ago. Life was just so much different than what it is today. Certainly every person who serves their country is to be commended, but these guys, there is no doubt in my mind, they were the greatest generation," the councilman said.

When the enemy ambushed an ammunition convoy which he had voluntarily joined, he demonstrating great courage, quickly moved to an exposed position to man a truck-mounted machine gun,m and although under intense small arms fire, fearlessly exacted a heavy toll from the enemy. The unhesitating bravery displayed by Pvt Skupaka reflects great credit on himself and the military service.

  2. His friends called him Jim Bill growing up. He was quite a man. As many were, he never talked much about his days as a POW. We found his Stalag IV-B tag along with the fork he used there after he passed away. Susan and I made a trip to IV-B last year. I sent a short story and pictures to The Cub and they were in the March 2020 issue. The only inaccurate thing with the story was our guide was shown as Susan in one of the pictures. Was quite a trip.
  3. Upon enlistment in 1942, Jim was assigned to the 58th Infantry and spent two years in the Aleutian Islands. He received the Asiatic Pacific Campaign Medal for that service. Upon return to the US in mid 1944 he apparently was briefly assigned to the 138th Infantry before being transferred to the 106th.

 My Dad was “moved out” of his artillery position a day or so after the beginning of the Ardennes assault (I believe he was behind the divisions on Schnee Eifel, riding in a weapons carrier, hauling a gun and a trailer with an officer’s Christmas dinner (“so the Nazi’s wouldn’t get it”). His vehicle was part of a caravan fleeing the onslaught. They struggled up and down hills with the big load. They slept briefly in a field one night until enemy fire drove them on. On December 19, 1944, as they entered “a bombed out town” (my father’s words on an audio recording), the jeep with the officers in front of them hit a mine and all were killed. My father and other GIs found themselves surrounded with “German guns sticking out of all the windows.” A fellow GI destroyed their big gun but was quickly shot and killed. They were immediately captured. My father, in the audio tape, says he was captured in St. Vith. After capture, they were marched to Bleialf and spent the night in a church courtyard that many other POWs describe.   CUB 1991-7/8/9, son Jeff Trawick-Smith 06/22/2020

  1. Captured around 12/21/1944 close to Hill 504 at Schoenberg.
  2. POW camp unknown
  3. He may have been repatriated through Switzerland shortly after the procedure so he may never have been in a POW Camp.

  2. Captured around 12/21/1944 close to Hill 504 at Schoenberg. His leg was amputated in a German POW camp.

  4. He was shot up when his position was overrun and left for dead in a field. Two nuns assisted him to some sort of facility where (speaking in Italian) they said he would be dead within hours. He was able to understand them and fought for his survival. He remembered being transported via railcar to a POW camp and also remembered the train being strafed by allied aircraft. German doctors eventually amputated his leg and probably saved his life. I have been trying to figure out which POW camp he was held at, but without luck. I requested his service information but very light due to the 1973 fire that destroyed records. They did find him qualified for a lot of medals which they are going to send to me. If anybody has any recollection of rail cars being strafed, or know what POW camp members of Company L went to, I would really appreciate it.

he was drafted into the Army where he served with the 106th Infantry Division. The 106th was the division that the Germans overran at the famous Battle of the Bulge. On that fateful day, 16,000 American soldiers lost their lives after which the United States government vowed never to rebuild the division.

  2. Drafted into the Army in 1941, he was variously assigned to Mitchell Field, Fort Benning, GA, Fort Jackson, SC and Camp Atterbury, IN. While he taught artillery at Fort Benning, he met Lt. Eleanor Brinkmeyer. They were separated for three years while she served as chief scrub nurse at the 121st General Hospital in Africa, Italy and France. He became a German prison-of-war in December 1944 after the 106th division was captured in the Ardennes forest near St. Vith at the Battle of the Bulge. Originally interned at Stalag XIIIB, he lost much of his hearing to the American bombing of German cities during a terrifying forced march eastward to avoid the advancing Allied Army. In the confusion of the allied triumph, he finally found and married Eleanor in France in June 1945.
  3. Julius was sent overseas with the 106th division and became a German prisoner of war in December 1944 after being captured in the Ardennes forest at the Battle of the Bulge.

When his leading vehicle attempted to penetrate the German lines and join friendly units, a direct hit by an 88mm shell destroyed the vehicle. Pfc Fischer and Pfc Spencer immediately manned the vehicle's machine gun while a third soldier ran back to warn the approaching convoy. Ignoring the intense 88mm, automatic and small arms fire they delivered such effective fire that the hostile 88 gun and two machine guns were silenced.

04/29/2018ROCKVILLE, Md. (Army News Service) -- Dr. Charlie Stenger, a World War II Army veteran, was awarded the Prisoner of War Medal by Lt. Gen. James C. McConville, Army G-1, on Tuesday, Aug. 16, at Stenger's Maryland home. Although the POW Medal was a long time in coming, Stenger, who is still sharp and relatively strong at 94, said it was a proud moment and he was honored by the Soldiers who came to witness the event. He was reluctant to discuss his wartime experiences, but he said it was OK for his wife of 15 years, Mary Lou Guandolo, to relate some of what took place. During the Battle of the Bulge, Stenger fought in the Schnee Eifel salient of Belgium, serving as a medic with the 423nd Infantry Regiment, which was attached to the 106th Infantry Division, she said. On Dec. 21, 1944, Stenger's regiment was overrun and surrounded by the Germans. He and his fellow Soldiers fought back, but it soon became clear that they faced certain annihilation. Stenger found a white piece of cloth and surrendered the remaining men, she said. He was one of 6,697 prisoners who was captured during the surprise German offensive. He was held at multiple prison camps until the end of the war, Guandolo related. During his transition from one camp to another, he was locked inside a boxcar that was strafed by the allied forces. Stenger was blown completely outside of the boxcar, landing on his back. Disabled by injuries from that explosion and frozen feet, Stenger faced hardships as a POW. The food that he and the other POWs were given was so lousy that they had to forage for whatever they could find near the prison camp. One happy occasion during his time as a POW was when Stenger found two bottles of wine during a foraging expedition. He stuck them up his sleeves and shared the wine with his fellow POWs, a much-needed morale booster.
SOLDIER FOR LIFE
In addition to presenting Stenger with the medal, McConville also presented him with a "Soldier for Life" sticker and pin and a commander's coin. Stenger expressed pride for his service and said he considers himself honored to be counted among the Soldiers for Life. McConville noted that, even after Stenger was honorably discharged from the Army at the end of the war, he continued to serve Soldiers as a psychologist in the Veterans Administration, as the Department of Veterans Affairs was then called. Records from the VA indicate that, among the Stenger's many contributions, he was instrumental in assisting former POWs with their psychological needs. As a former POW himself, he could especially relate to them. He served there from 1947 until his retirement in 1980.

  3. Guy enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1943, was trained in Combat Intelligence, and joined the 106th Inf. Div. at Camp Atterbury, Ind. He found himself headed overseas to England in 1944 on the Queen Elizabeth. On December 12, 1944, their division was holding a 28-mile line (the "Seigfried Line") through the Ardennes Forest. It was cold, lots of snow was falling and it was quite foggy. This was considered a "quiet sector," but in the early morning hours of December 16, "all hell broke loose." There were Tiger tanks, 88's, infantry, mortars, etc. What followed were four days of nightmarish combat, confusion, running out of ammunition, and famished soldiers (there was no food for those four days). There were wounded men "boxed" in a valley; they had to surrender. They were marched for three days, sleeping in barn yards, then loaded into box cars (about 70 soldiers crammed in per car) on December 22. The cars were parked in a rail yard at Koblenz on Christmas Eve when our allied planes (RAF) bombed the tracks, unknowingly, killing 13 of our soldiers and injuring many others. ("It was terrifying; the most helpless feeling ever.")
  4. Mr. Stephens arrived at Stalag 9B, Bad Orb, Germany, on December 27. Some of his notes from that time: "The conditions were terrible; we had to eat out of our helmets or helmet liners; no spoons -- improvise one or use your fingers. We had no baths, never got out of the clothes we were captured in until after we were liberated. Bed bugs, head and body lice. My weight went from 178 down to 128." The prisoners were liberated on April 2, 1945. Guy spent time in the hospital, and was discharged at Ft. Knox, on November 29, 1945. His medals include: Combat Infantry Badge; European – African – Middle Eastern Campaign Medal with three battle stars; Bronze Star; Purple Heart; Prisoner of War Medal; American Campaign Medal; World War II Victory Medal; and Good Conduct Medal.

  4. When the history of the Ardennes fighting has been written, it will be recorded as one of the great strategic Allied successes of the war in Europe. Tactically, for the 106th and the other American divisions involved, it was a bitter and costly fight. But it becomes increasingly clear that the Germans expended in that last futile effort those last reserves of men and materiel which they needed so badly a few months later. The losses and sacrifices of the 106th Infantry Division paid great dividends in eventual victory. These pages are dedicated to those gallant men who refused to quit in the darkest hour of the Allied invasion, and whose fortitude and heroism turned the tide toward overwhelming victory. Donald A. Stroh, Major General, Commanding

Then he was given the opportunity to fight the Russians. After another refusal, he was stripped of his clothes and made to stand on the balcony in the freezing cold with his arms raised. He survived this near death experience to be sent to a labor camp near Trier, Germany. He survived nine straight days without food or water.

 The time has come for the men of Stalag IVB to agitate for the Congressional Medal of Honor for 1st Lt. Joshua P. Sutherland of Hays, Va. I'm sure that all the men of IVB will agree that his service as medical officer at the prison was much more heroic and much further beyond the call of duty than any battlefield hero. Let's show him our appreciation and America what a real hero is. Our Division has proclaimed itself as a veteran's organization which believes we should strive in peace to win the victory we fought in battle the right to fight for. Should not one of our Medal of Honor men be a soldier who fought to save lives at the risk of his own health and safety? Make speeches. Sign petitions. Get stories in the papers. A Co. must start the ball rolling.   CUB 1995-4/5/6, Cub In Review
