DescriptionJeep devant casemate H671 (35181325351).jpg |
Bombardée par l’aviation alliée dans la nuit du 5 au 6 juin 1944. La batterie d'azeville fait l’objet d’une attaque menée par les parachutistes américains de la 101ème division aéroportée, largués par erreur ici. Le 9 juin, les GI’s du 3/22nd Infantry Régiment tentent de capturer les casemates d’Azeville. La I Company est ainsi bloquée. Ralph G. Riley et son lance-flammes à l’assaut de l’édifice. Il parvient sain et sauf à proximité de l’accès de la casemate et se met à couvert dans un trou d’obus. Son lance-flammes est défaillant. Qu’à cela ne tienne, il allume son briquet et ouvre l’arrivée de gaz de son arme. Le feu jaillit enfin. Riley remarque une nappe d'huile sur le seuil de l'entrée. Il vise alors la base des portes blindées, les flammes se propageant ensuite sous l’obstacle. Placées derrière les portes du blockhaus, des munitions n’ont pas résisté au feu délivré par Riley. S’en est trop pour l’ennemi qui hisse alors le drapeau blanc. Pour son courage et son esprit d’initiative, Ralph Riley est décoré de la Silver Star |
