| Description: |
Bob Levine grew up in the Bronx, and was assigned to the 90th Infantry Division as a replacement in Normandy. He was wounded and captured in the battle for Hill 122, and had a leg amputated by a German surgeon. Many years later, with the assistance of the Normandy historian Henri Levaufre, Levine met members of the family of the doctor who had amputated his leg. Levine's story is included in They Were All Young Kids.
