?I fought in campaigns against the Russian Army, the Serbian Army, the Roumanian Army, the British Army, the French Army, and the American Army. All told in this war I have participated in more than 80 battles. I have found your American Army the most honorable of all our enemies. You have also been the bravest of our enemies and in fact the only ones who have attacked us seriously in this year?s battles. I therefore honor you, and, now that the war is over, I stand ready, for my part, to accept you as a friend.? Chief of Staff for General v. Einem, Third German Army

Karl Finkl of Bolingen
