Good job. My father-in-law was in Love Company of the 399th and talked extensively of his experience toward the end of his life. He was seriously wounded by a mortar shell in November 1944 near Raon l’Etape in the Vosges Mountains…treated at Epinal and St. Die, put on a hospital train to Paris and then to the Royal Victoria hospital in Netley, near Southampton.

Looking forward to more of your narrative.

Thanks! I met a couple of vets from Love Company when I took a battlefield tour, so I talk about them a bit in the Raon l'Etape chapter.
