Hi,

I had a great uncle that was in the 101st. He was in B company & knew some of the Easy guys. He was wounded just after D-Day & was sent home & did not make it to Eagles nest. He was always hesitant to talk about what happened in the war, but he did show me His old uniform and some photos & stuff before he passed away of old age a few years ago.
