This is further to my post regarding the circumstances of the death of Shep's friend Schwartz during WWII. I recently confirmed that First Lieutenant Paul LeRoy Schwartz is memorialized at the Sicily-Rome American Cemetery and Memorial, located not far from Anzio Beach. On the white marble walls of the cemetery's chapel are engraved the names of 3,095 missing American servicemen; one of those is Schwartz. His simple inscription reads:
SCHWARTZ PAUL L R * 1 LT * 341 BOMB SQ 97 BOMB GP (H) * MISSOURI |
