COMBAT STORIES FROM World War II

William Dailey | 164th Infantry Regiment - Army

5:02   |   William recalls his first night on Bougainville and his experience on the front lines. Artillery fire did not cease all night and he was unable to leave the foxholes until June. He also recalls being out on patrols and how planes would drop bombs that would occasionally get close enough to scrape right over his head.
