Foi a única vez em que americanos e a Wehrmacht combateram juntos(!!) contra uma divisão da SS, a 17º Waffen-SS Panzergrenadier division(!!!!!). Não apenas isso, mas para ficar mais weird ainda, com essa batalha, os americanos poderão dizer que já lutaram defendendo um castelo Medieval(!!!!!).

Não é enredo de um filme do Quentin Tarantino, a coisa aconteceu de verdade

The battle for the fairytale, 13th century Castle Itter was the only time in WWII that American and German troops joined forces in combat, and it was also the only time in American history that U.S. troops defended a medieval castle against sustained attack by enemy forces. To make it even more film worthy, two of the women imprisoned at Schloss Itter—Augusta Bruchlen, who was the mistress of the labour leader Leon Jouhaux, and Madame Weygand, the wife General Maxime Weygand—were there because they chose to stand by their men. They, along with Paul Reynaud’s mistress Christiane Mabire, were incredibly strong, capable, and determined women made for portrayal on the silver screen.
