Josiah Wedgwood was a nineteen year old infantryman from Bedford Virginia. He is part of the 29th infantry set to land on Omaha Beach during the Normandy invasion. One day while waiting for the go-ahead from his Sergeant, Woody runs into a friend, Marcus Perry who is part of a colored Transportation unit. Although they attended different high schools they knew each other from working at Johnson’s Hardware. Marcus attends a colored school, and Woody attends Moneta High School and has a younger brother, Ezra. For the past several weeks they have been training for the landing, practicing climbing in and out of the boats. There have been several attempts to invade but were abandoned because of weather.
