their prisoners under cover of
darkness.
Two days before Jackson was

Division, working with the 99th
Dlv., did roll in, we couldn't be
lieve it." said Jackson. "We just
stood there and stared with un
believing eves at the tanks as
they coughed and sputtered down
the road. Maybe soma of us
smiled a little. We were too weak
to cheer."
