of the 10th Regiment Headquarters
Company and were killed when the
house occupied by the company was
bombed by aircraft.
According to Lieutenant Crawford,
the 10th was at a critical point in
the big battle and suffered greatly.
His company, NJ, from Latrobe went
into the conflict with 230 men and
came out with about 100. The next

just before I left there" said the re-
turned officer. "He was well, but
