Charlie Wilson Shiflett
KIA by a sniper, 30 July 1944 Normandy, France
These are letters written by Charlie Wilson Shiflett to his family during his
military
service in the US Army during World War II starting in July 1943 and ending
with his death on July 30, 1944. Wilson's body was returned to the United States in 1947
and buried at Mt. Moriah Methodist Church Cemetery, White Hall, VA.
Tombstone
I made every attempt to transcribe the letters exactly the way Wilson had
written them.
