kanemono Posted June 19, 2016 Share #64 Posted June 19, 2016 EUGENE R. ANDERSON, 0365876, CAPTIAN, 294th Joint Assault Signal Company. For gallantry in action in the vicinity of Colleville-sur-mar, Normandy, France, 6 June 1944. Despite intense hostile fire, Captain Anderson skillfully maneuvered his section to better observe naval fire. On his own initiative, he proceeded beyond advanced infantry positions to direct artillery fire and neutralized machine guns impeding a battalions advance. Captain Anderson’s courageous leadership materially aided in the success of the invasion. Residence at appointment: Forty Fort, Pennsylvania.
