Ed Tipper
| Sergant Ed Tipper (deceased) Ed Tipper volunteered for the paratroopers and was assigned to Easy Company, 101st Airborne. He made his first jump into Normandy on D-Day. Fighting in Carentan, he was hit by a mortar shell and badly injured. His right eye was damaged, and later removed completely, while both his legs were broken. He was first sent to England then repatriated to the United States. When I came out of the Army I walked with a cane and wore an eye patch. The thing I remember most was the tremendous response of everybody I met to do everything they could do to show support for the military. Maybe the support felt exaggerated to me because I had clearly been shot up and wounded. Whenever I ate at a restaurant I went to the cashier and there was almost never a bill. Or the waitress nodded her head and said, 'A gentleman over at that table has paid.' Of course I was home a year ahead of everybody else. But that sort of thing happened to me a lot. He died on 1st February 2017. |
