Ray was originally in the 8th Army, made Sergeant,(more than once), and fought in France and Belgium.

He was in the 'Battle of the Bulge', and was one of the 'Bastards of Bastogne'!

In the fog of war, he fought alongside several groups, including an Air Force unit, and some British and Canadian Forces. Since he was bandaged by a Canadian Medic, he was later made an Honourary Chief Warrant Officer in the R.C.R.

Sergeant O'Donnell was one of our heroes, and I'll bet he's got his leg back, now that he's in Heaven!

R.I.P., Sarge.

OORAH!!

Prayers for your Father-in-Law that he is having a wonderful time in Heaven, along with my gratitude for his service. Also, prayers for you and yours. Hang tough, and remember the good times.
