A U.S. Army Station Hospital, England - Private First Class Harvey Strassburg of North Tonawanda, New York, radio operator of a Sherman tank who was wounded in the shoulder by grenade shrapnel near Granville, France, is now recovering at this United States Army station hospital in England.

“A medic gave me first aid right on the field and then sent me to the rear. Later I was evacuated to England by air,” he said.
Before entering the Army, Pfc. Strassburg worked for the Buffalo Bolt Company. He is the brother of Mrs. Donald Townsend, formerly of North Tonawanda.
