Raymond S. HOBACK - 29th Division.
Bedford Boys Fallen - Raymond Samuel HOBACK never had a chance to reach 100 years old today. Instead, he sacrified his life for our freedom... Raymond may have made it out of his landing craft, but he never made it to shore. Others recall seeing his body in the water. Bedford also failed to make in on the beach.

Le 12 juillet 2017, c'est avec beaucoup d'émotion que, mon épouse et moi-même, avons fleuri pour la 1 ère fois la tombe de Wesley.
Cela restera un moment a jamais gravé dans nos mémoires... Honored by jean lou untereiner [2017-07-24 14:30:33] |

Grâce à l'association "Les fleurs de la mémoire", je pourrai aller fleurir la tombe de ce héros le plus régulièrement possible. Je ne le connaissais pas il y a 15 jours et désormais, il fait partie de ma vie. Il a donné sa vie pour que nous soyons libres.
