This captain we goggled his name. He directed some Sherman tanks to destroy German pillboxes. After that he rallied his men to take other objectives. All time under heavy enemy fire. He was cut down while leading his men forward.

The houses, barns and churches in Normandy are super cool. It has not changed here in like 200 years. Man I wish I could run around here in one of my uniforms. While we were driving around, all I kept thinking is, I want to play CALL OF DUTY 2.....LOL
