Ed Joint | Private Ed Joint 101st airborne division, Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment. We were sent out to take a machine gun position. It was just before the battle of Foy ended. I was running up a hill and got hit by shrapnel in my right arm. I went flying up in the air, I didn't know at first what hit me. Somebody hollered for a medic. They put me on a stretcher and took me to a field hospital. They couldn't do nothing with it there, so they took me back and put me in a hospital in Paris. A medic said, You can go home now soldier, you ain't going to fight no more. But twenty days later I hitchhiked back to Company E to find them. They were just getting ready to go to Germany. What made me want to go back and fight? I don't know. They were my outfit, my friends. |
