1st Division, 18th Infantry regiment KIA Normandy Bronze Star !

[WwiiVet]

So I thought I bought a 30th Division dog tag until I realized the 18th infantry regiment isnt the 30th division and probably is an error in the newspaper. Turned out the guy is a 1st ID, 18th Regiment, Company A guy. He came from Arkansas and had a twinbrother. He landed on DDAY H-Hour +210 minutes at the easy red sector and later on was awarded a bronze star for heroic actions on 15 June, 1944. He was KIA later on during the battle of Marigny on 27 July, 1944 which was part of 'Operation Cobra'. It is possible he participated in other battles before DDAY ( North Africa, Italy ) but for now thats still unknown. His name is on a 1st ID monument in belgium which contains all the names of soldiers that died between 25 July - 6 September.
