Images from April 2, 1945, at Ittenbach, Germany, of the burial of Major General Maurice Rose, who was killed in action on March 30, 1945, in the advance on Paderborn, Germany. Also included is a still photo of his parents, Rabbi Samuel Rose and Katherine Rose, at their home in Denver, Colorado, after learning of his death. Gen. Rose, only 45 years old at the time, had led his 3rd Armored "Spearhead" Division through France and Belgium, and then becoming the first Allied ground force to invade German soil in WWII. Later in 1945, his body was re-interned in Margraten, The Netherlands, as all American servicemen buried in Germany were re-interned to Allied countries by order of the Army.

This is great to see the Mil furneral of Gen Rose. See such maybe odd to some but to a Mil person it is somber moment. Gen Rose was a great person and so sad he was lost so young as men in his unit. Peace be onto him.

Rose was a true soldier, a tough one. That is probably why HE died in combat and Patton died in a car crash. He was one of few American Commanders who could resist and fight off an attack of well equipped Panzer SS forces.
I am convinced that the Gods will hold his soul in mercy. Rest in Peace General.

General Rose was a true hero, much beloved by his men, who died in battle leading his outfit across Germany. God rest his soul.
