Stuart McIntyre
WWII | 2nd Battalion, 399th Infantry Regiment, 100th Infantry Division
The battle of Baccarat took many lives with it, but it left McIntyre unharmed. From there he describes what his company had to do next, one significant event being the battle of Bitche, France. At one point, his hand was wounded during combat, and he was up for a purple heart because of it. When asked by the medic if he wanted to be put down for one, he declined not knowing it would get him points to go home sooner. However, he did manage to receive a bronze star later on down the line.
