The 116th Regiment of the 29th Division, officially nicknamed the "Stonewall Brigade," landed on Omaha Beach on June 6, 1944, spearheading the Allied invasion of Nazi-occupied France. Overloaded and seasick, the soldiers of the 116th struggled through rough surf, mined beach obstacles, machine-gun fire, and artillery to push inland and reach their intended objectives. Drawing on a lineage tracing back to the American Civil War, the the "Stonewallers" upheld its long-standing reputation for determination and valor.
Staff Sergeant Bob Slaughter, whose signature appears on this print, landed with Company D of the 116th Infantry Regiment on D-Day. He would survive that day, and the remainder of the war, earning two Purple Hearts and two Bronze Stars. But he thought himself no hero, and never forgot his brothers-in-arms who did not come home.
