Al Mampre, the last of WWII’s Easy Company (Band of Brothers) medics passed today at 97.
During his time in Holland he survived a shot from a sniper while tending to Lt. Bob Brewer.
“Like a… . mule kicked me in the leg,” he told the West Point Center for Oral History. “I looked back there, and it’s laid open right to the bone… .I gave myself a shot of morphine… . I didn’t want to go into shock.”
