WORLD WAR I SERGEANT ON BEACH
Our company had a 1st sgt. by name of Norcop, a verteran of the first
war with many years in the Army. On the landing, I being ayoung healthy
man though I would be among the first ashore. We had waist deep water
for about 250 yards, plus enemy fire to contend with. As I neared the
beach, there was the 1st sgt. standing on the beach all alone, waiting for
his company to come in.
