James Tynes is a Hero. He died January 11, 1943 during the Battle of the Bulge protecting Strasbourg France from reoccupation by the Germans. Because of his bravery and countless others Europe was spared a cruel fate of tyranny. I am surprised how little our family knows this man and his sacrifice. Most of the people who knew him are gone. He was a radio technician for a 155 mm howitzer. This would have put him up front on many an occasion. He is buried at the Epinal American Cemetery. www.abmc.gov/images/ep3w.jpg
