Скачать или смотреть Wounded Hero Leads Final Charge: Sgt Connor's Epic WW2 Stand Sgt. James P. Connor

Immerse yourself in the relentless heroism of Sergeant James P. Connor, a 25-year-old from Wilmington, Delaware, with the 7th Infantry Regiment, 3rd Infantry Division, in this gripping ShortFactWizard YouTube Short. On August 15, 1944, during Operation Dragoon’s amphibious landing on Red Beach at Cape Cavalaire, southern France, Connor led a 36-man platoon against heavily fortified German positions threatening the Allied invasion. A veteran of North Africa and Sicily, he was struck in the neck by a mine explosion that killed his platoon lieutenant, yet refused medical aid, rallying his men across 2,000 yards of mine-laden beach under intense mortar, flak, and sniper fire. Personally killing two snipers, Connor was wounded again in the shoulder and leg but continued leading, inspiring his decimated platoon to outflank enemy bunkers. His ferocious assault captured 40 Germans, three machine guns, and critical objectives, though only nine of his men survived. A former high school basketball star, Connor’s unyielding determination ensured safe landings for thousands of Allied troops. Awarded the Medal of Honor in 1945 by Lieutenant General Alexander Patch, his actions secured a pivotal victory in the European Theater. This 55-second tribute captures the indomitable spirit of a soldier whose wounded leadership turned the tide in a desperate battle.
