COMBAT STORIES FROM World War II

Fred Bahlau | 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division - Army

3:46   |   In the middle of a frigid wooded battlefield, Fred Bahlau left his foxhole to go check on others. He only got a short distance when a shell came in and wounded the Captain. He got a medic and set out again when another shell hit the same place. Now he had two wounded men. (Caution: strong language. May be inappropriate for some viewers.) (This interview made possible with the support of FRANK LEYENDEKKER.)
