COMBAT STORIES FROM World War II

Charles Shepherd | K Company, 3rd Battalion, 121st Infantry Regiment, 8th Infantry Division - Army

3:05   |   Charles Shepherd needed five points to be discharged at the end of the war. He pointed out to his commander that the decoration he had been recommended for was worth five points. All he had to do was round up some of the guys to confirm the story. This led to him receiving the Silver Star for a previous action.
