 The black sheep usually doesn't follow the crowd because every once in a while, the crowd is literally going the wrong way in mass   The black sheep usually doesn't follow the crowd because every once in a while, the crowd is literally going the wrong way in mass  It takes a black sheep to stand out and say, 'Hey, I think we're headed off a cliff here!' They may be labeled as outcasts or rebels, but in reality, they're the ones who are brave enough to challenge the status quo and forge their own path. Let's celebrate the black sheep in our lives - the ones who inspire us to think differently, to question the norms, and to embrace our individuality.

The deadliest mass execution of US soldiers during WWII occurred at the Baugnez crossroads, near Malmédy Belgium

 The deadliest mass execution of US soldiers during WWII occurred at the Baugnez crossroads, near Malmédy Belgium

 The deadliest mass execution of US soldiers during WWII occurred at the Baugnez crossroads, near Malmédy Belgium on December 17,1944 in what became known as the Malmédy Massacre.  



On that day, a convoy of the US Army's Battery B, 285th Field Artillery Observation Battalion was traveling from Schevenhutte, near Aachen, Germany to St. Vith Belgium, having just been transferred from VII Corps to VIII Corps.  


Around 1 pm., the leading elements of Kampfgruppe ("battle group") Peiper, commanded by SS Sturmbannführer Joachim Peiper observed the American convoy moving south at the Baugnez crossroads.  The jeeps, weapons carriers, and 2 1/2 ton trucks of the American convoy were an inviting target and came under fire from the lead Panzerkampfwagen (PzKw.) Mk. IV tanks.  The lightly armed Americans quickly surrendered to the German tank force.  


As the Kampfgruppe continued to move west, 120 American prisoners were gathered in a field near the crossroad.  Unexpectantly, the soldiers of KGr. Peiper opened fire on the American prisoners killing them where they stood.  The SS troops even walked among the bodies shooting any who appeared alive.  


Despite the efforts of the Germans, 43 POWs survived and escaped to Malmedy which was still in American hands.   The bodies of those who died at the Baugnez crossroads lay in what was to become a no man's land until January 14, 1945.  


Peiper's unit stood accused of killing other Allied prisoners and Belgian civilians during the course of the Ardennes offensive.  In May 1946, Peiper and 72 members of his Kampfgruppe stood trial for war crimes before a US Military court at the former concentration camp Dachau.


 Forty-three of the defendants, including Peiper, were sentenced to death by hanging, 22 to life imprisonment, and the rest to between 10 and 20 years imprisonment.  None of the death sentences were ever carried out and all of the prisoners were released by December 1956.  Sadly, the last casualty of the Malmédy Massacre was justice.
