     PFC Co. K, 264 Infantry, 66th Division, WWII, Bronze Star Recipient.

During World War II, the Belgian troopship Leopoldville carried manysoldiers into combat in France, safely crossing the English Channelnumerous times. But on Christmas Eve, December 24, 1944, during theBattle of the Bulge (the Ardennes Offensive), a German submarine torpedoed and sank the Leopoldville while it carried 2,235 men of the U.S. 66th Infantry Division, mostly the 264th Infantry Regiment. Though only 5.5 miles from Cherbourg, 802 men were killed, of whom 493 werenever found. As at least one of the notes below indicate, the officialcounts may have been low: more than 980 men may have died.

Co. K, was on board the Leopoldville.
