Audie Murphy and Colmar Pocket a Private WWII Battlefield Tour

On the Front Tours is a specialist WWII operator. The Colmar Pocket is led by battlefield historian Matthew Menneke, featured on National Geographic and the Discovery Channel, so you get genuine expertise on the ground, not a script read from a card. Because the tour is fully private, the day is built around your group alone — your pace, your questions, your interests. We don't combine you with strangers or rush a fixed timetable. And we connect the whole campaign into one clear story. Most of these sites have a plaque and little else; the value is a specialist who can link a Maginot casemate, a river crossing, Audie Murphy's stand and the final break at Jebsheim into a single narrative you actually understand by the end. - Stand at Holtzwihr, where Audie Murphy won the Medal of Honor - Seven battlefield stops in chronological order across Alsace - Private tour, your group only, led by a specialist historian - Hotel pick-up from Colmar or Freiburg
