Albert Blithe Band Of Brothers. They were the men of E Company 506 th Parachute Infantry Regiment 101 st Airborne Division the 506 th PIR. I think it was it was. Albert Blithe Easy CompanyBatalln506. I like this one.
Wounded in Normandy in June 1944 Albert Blithe died in a hospital in Germany after a discomfort in Belgium in 1967. I liked Blithe in the series. Try to find my unit. He died in the intensive care unit on December 17 1967 after surgery and was buried in Arlington National Cemetery with full honors7. My copy of Band of Brothers book mentions Blithe all of twice in the index. The night was filled with dark and coldWhen Sergeant Talbert the storys toldPulled out his poncho and headed outTo check the lines dressed like a Kraut.
BUT here it is.
Contrary to both the Band of Brothers book and mini-series Albert did not die in 1948. Sir when I landed on D-Day I found myself in a ditch all by myself. Mar 17 2013 - Albert Blithe and his wife Kay. Airsickness pills they gave us. On December 11 1967 Blithe was taken to the emergency room at Wiesbaden Hospital Germany where he was admitted with a diagnosis of a perforated ulcer. Neither place mentions that he died although it does have the hysterical blindness episode.
