Talk:Filthy Thirteen

Untitled
Just wanted to say that I support the call for citations. The only external link is to the book by Mr. Mcniece. Is the book the sole source of information on the Filthy Thirteen, or are there other sources? I'd also like to know which members died on the Douve River bridge mission that claimed most of the group's lives. Thanks for whatever light anyone can shed on this interesting group.

The reference to "parachuted into Bastogne" is from p. 45 of "From Toccoa to the Eagle's Nest Discoveries in the Bootsteps of the Band of Brothers" by Dalton Einhorn Witnessforpeace (talk) 22:47, 12 April 2010 (UTC) I also found this reference. Better ones are probably available (more specific): * / p. 522 Witnessforpeace (talk) 18:56, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Native American origin?
I remember reading an interview of McNiece in which he said that his being of Native American origin is a myth and that he merely got the ideas for the mohawk from them. Afterwards, members of his unit imitated him. I would have linked to the interview but am unable to find it. Can anyone help here ? Vero432, August 2013.

The native American myth grew to include all the members later. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.161.176.237 (talk) 01:33, 4 August 2014 (UTC)
