Ep. 21 Colonel Lloyd Huggins - Leading Easy Company Thru the Hurtgen Forest, the Battle of the Bulge, and Beyond
Manage episode 510816190 series 3638311
Colonel Lloyd G. Huggins landed on Omaha Beach three weeks after D-Day as the replacement officer for Easy Company’s Infantry Regiment. They were in continuous combat for nearly one year fighting through France, the Siegfried Line, the Hurtgen Forest, the Battle of the Bulge, across the Remagen Bridge, until VE Day. No one had more respect for his infantry men than Huggins did. Through it all, he put his men first and foremost in his mind. This is his story, as told in his letters to the podcast host and his unpublished 1988 autobiography that he sent to me.
