Tex Gray Eyewitness Statement of Tex Gray (1968)

Late in the day of 21 February when our company had cleared much of the enemy resistance and we had approached their final lines I was moving in a trench trying to close in on a bunker when enemy fire wounded me in the shoulder. The trench was so narrow that the only way I would have been able to get out would have been by pushing up on the shoulder that was wounded. And I couldn't do this so I was trapped and enemy fire was still coming in at me. Just then I saw Sgt Hooper running across the field toward me with bullets hitting all around him.
