My father was Lt.Malcolm M. Ricks. My father recieved a letter from one of the other men, in the 11th, in the mid 90s thanking him for not allowing the tanks to fire into the night. They'd seen movement in the trees and thought it might be German soldiers. My father wanted to make sure who it was before firing. Turned out it was a German family with several children. My father was always proud that they did not kill an innocent family. He passed away in 2002 and I looked for the letter he'd recieved from the soldier who'd written him. I never found the letter.
