Report[edit]

The paragraph with the supposed report by Preuss comes from Jochen Peiper Justice Denied -- so it may be a copyvio. The book itself sounds sketchy -- the title, the thrust of the narrative, and the typos; one actually right in the next para: "commander's (sic) and men". I'm going to remove this content from the article. K.e.coffman (talk) 07:22, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Lost in translation[edit]

"...because Preuß lost track several times during the campaign..."

I don't have the book to check as to his author's opinion stated in part above, but I am sure there is something lost in the translation from German. I trust someone can check this and re-write it. Kierzek (talk) 14:34, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It is fixed by Assayer, and reads much better now. Kierzek (talk) 02:03, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
