I'm not sure. He jumped at Normandy. The 508th got scattered everywhere and he was one of the few from the 508th who went into Sainte-Mère-Église to try and reconnect with others from the 508th. He said he saw the paratrooper hanging from the roof of the church and just assumed he was dead.
He also jumped into Holland for Operation Market Garden and fought for the Nijmegen bridge.
My mother was a 12 year old girl at the time of the Bulge. She and her family were living in a house in the Ardennes somewhere near between Florentville and Martue. She has lots of great stories to tell about how they were waiting for the weather to clear, about how the Germans ran around American uniforms etc.
Her father was an officer in the Belgian Army and spent almost a year in a German POW camp before being released.
Have you ever seen “Theirs is the Glory” It is on YouTube. It is half documentary/half movie about Market Garden.
