When the ramp fell, all I heard was bullets slamming into flesh and screams for help. The man infront of me, Jhon Applegrove had been shot along with David Jackson, another of my close friends. One man named Micheal Yorkshire was carrying a camara and took the photo of us all. A while after the war, Ihad it animated as it is now. The man who took the photo was killed in action March 10th 1945. The other man who I have failed to mention his name-stood behind David Jackson is Andrew Bennet who survived the war and is still a close friend of mine.
