The longest Day

Posted by goldielocks @ 19:36 on June 6, 2019  

Most of us remember particularly the part we’re soilders parachutes get stuck on the church and becoming sitting ducks.
Here’s the story of that soilder who was captured by the Germans and escaped to join his troops.
The story you don’t know is the seasoned soilder that while dying from his wounds shot the Germans who were going to kill them.
He tells of how the weather caused them to land in the wrong place and how some landed in a burning barn the Germans set afire.
How he and another owed his life to this soilder.
Ps Ray didn’t die that day and it took awhile to get his right date. He died 8 days later from his wounds and gangrene. His wife didn’t even know. To make it worse some shirt denied his fathers request to send him home to me next to his wife and Rays mother.
