Description
“One of my men was most seriously wounded. He apparently had his back to the side of the barn where the shell hit and had many pieces of shrapnel and wood in his back. At this time, I could not see the extent of all the injuries because I was temporarily blinded. My eyes were burning and watering. I thought I would never see again.” — Paul H. Sleger
