When a German Put a Pistol to This American's Head — He Laughed and Said "Come Get Me"

#worldwar2 #ww2history #ww2 Why one American sergeant demanded 150 German soldiers surrender to him during WW2 — and sparked a 4-day battle that became legend. This World War 2 story reveals how one man's impossible stand changed everything. October 24, 1944. Technical Sergeant Charles Coolidge, a machine gun section leader with the 36th Infantry Division, stood in the Vosges Mountains of France with twelve inexperienced replacements. They had just walked into an entire German infantry company. Every tactical manual said to withdraw immediately. His men had never seen combat. There was no officer present. Coolidge did the opposite — he demanded the Germans surrender. They were all wrong. What happened over the next four days in those frozen woods became one of the most remarkable stands of the entire war. Wave after wave of German attacks. Rain. Cold. No sleep. And on the fourth day, the Germans brought tanks. What Coolidge did when he faced that armor with nothing but a malfunctioning bazooka would earn him the Medal of Honor. Coolidge became the last living WW2 Medal of Honor recipient until his death in 2021 at age 99. The heritage center in Chattanooga, Tennessee now bears his name. But what he accomplished on Hill 623 — and how he accomplished it — is something you have to see to believe. 🔔 Subscribe for more untold WW2 stories: / @wwii-Echo Spectrum 👍 Like this video if you learned something new 💬 Comment below: What other WW2 tactics should we cover? #worldwar2 #ww2history #ww2 #wwii #ww2records ⚠️ Disclaimer: This is entertainment storytelling based on WW2 events from internet sources.
