NORMANDY - STAND WHERE THEY FOUGHT TOUR 2007
#13

The Ingouf farm was held by german paras of the 6th FJR and was heavely attacked. The orchard, Cabbage Patch, open fields and ditches around the Ingouf farm was littered with the bodies of wounded or dead soldiers. from the 700 yound men at Cole's command, just 132 were still standing. Also most of von der Heydtes' 6th FJR was shattered trying to prevent the 502nd from crossing the four bridges.
