"Had I been standing up, I'd have been gone"
Raymond Tarabusi's war testimony covers in great detail the first-hand experience he had serving in the US Army in the time around D-Day. Mr Tarabusi followed the initial wave, being sent to Normandy to help with Operation Cobra, an attempt to break Allied forces out of Normandy and gain a firm foothold in mainland Europe. Mr Tarabusi saw his friends die, and witnessed all kinds of grim realities of war as his service took him from Normandy to the Ardennes, and the infamous Battle of the Bulge.
