They found the thief guilty and he was given his choice - to man the honey bucket until we were liberated or be put to death.\" Nickell and Schmidt were POWs at Stalag IX-B, one of the worst of the Nazi prison camps, after being captured in the French village of Hatten during the Germans' Operation North Wind. This is a rare firsthand account of the battle of Hatten from three members of the 242nd Regiment of the 42nd \"Rainbow\" Infantry Division.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jack Nickell, William Corson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1494478021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781494478025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/12\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 38\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.08d","brand":"Jack Nickell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43985857413375,"sku":"9781494478025","price":6.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ae79b902-02c9-4a63-b0fe-96cf2bd10f2a.jpg?v=1683279949","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/captured-in-hatten-jack-nickell-9781494478025","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
