A Lucky Find
In July 1944 young PFC Don McCarthy of Company A, 116th Infantry Regiment, 29th Division has a moment of luck. A brief break in the rain causes the sunlight to glint off something in the mud, his class ring, lost in the darkness of his foxhole the night before.
Don recounted this story in the wonderful film by Charlotte Juergens Sunken Roads: Three Generations After D-Day.
