Talk:Operation Basalt
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
My grand-father, a German officer on Guernsey, reported to me that he spoke to the only German survivor of this raid, except the soldier who was captured. It was was actually the one who was stabbed: he was only hurt by the tip of the knife that scratched the back of his head, hard enough make him unconscious and left for dead. This soldier, a "Pionier" from Guernsey, reported that the prisoners wanted to escape by running away at the same time. They fell into barbered wire and were shot.
I removed this super story from User 81.247.191.211 because it is not encyclopedic. Darn shame though. Neat little bit of family history Paul, in Saudi 13:18, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
