Roetgen / Rott (1) – Spring edition

Soldiers of the 39th Regiment infantry of the 9th American division on a sherman tank near Roetgen on their way to Rott. This was the first crossing of the Siegfriedline. Unfortunately it was spring so leaves in the way but in the winter
this must be a great shot.
