On 8 June 1944, the 1st Battalion, 115th Infantry moved forward and took up defensive positions east of Longueville, as the town of Trevieres had not yet been secured by advancing forces. The battalion held this line in a defensive posture, awaiting further movement as the broader effort to clear Trevieres continued. Records from this period reflect the battalion's overall position and movements rather than the actions of any single company within it. 1st Lt Coffey was killed in action that day; the report does not specify the individual circumstances.
