Summary

[edit]
Description
Deutsch: Denkmal zum Anlass der Überquerung des Rheins am Ende des zweiten Weltkriegs durch amerikanische Truppen. Text auf der linken Tafel: Zur Erinnerung an den historischen Brückenschlag / An dieser Stelle errichtete das 249. Pionierbataillion, nachdem es die 5. Infanteriedivision der U.S. Armee bei Oppenheim unterstützt hatte, am 22. und 23. März 1945 im ersten erfolgreichen Sturmangriff zur Rheinüberquerung seit Napoleons Zeiten eine 366 Meter lange Pontonbrücke, um Teile von General George S. Patrons 3. Armee über den Rhein zu bringen. Der Bau der Brücke dauerte nur 18 Stunden. / Diese Bemerkenswerte bauliche Leistung trug zweifellos dazu bei, den Krieg früher zu beenden und somit unzähligen Menschen auf beiden Seiten des Konflikts das Leben zu retten.
