THE DETROIT FREE PRESS, Jan. 15, 1945 The front page has a banner headline: "NAZIS FLEE FROM BELGIUM; 232 GERMAN PLANES DOWNED" with subheads.
The top of page 3 has a banner heading: "Yanks Fighting in 'Field of the Dead' Cry for Revenge on Butchers" with lead-in: "Snow-Covered Victims of Nazi Massacre Drive GIs into Fury".
This war crime "Malmedy Massacre" was actually committed about a month earlier but wasn't realized until more Allied troops entered the area.
Sixteen pages, light toning and a little wear at the margins, generally good.
