Ernest N Carter

Capt Ernest Carter was killed in action on 19 June 1944, serving with Medical Detachment, 115th Infantry Regiment. On 19 June 1944, the 115th Infantry Regiment shifted its command post, moving first from Bois de Bretel to a position behind 2nd Battalion before settling at grid reference 657682. This relocation suggests the regiment was adjusting its positions in step with the movements of its forward battalions during this period. Records at this level reflect regimental activity broadly, so the specific duties of Regimental Troops that day are not separately documented. Capt Carter was killed in action that day; the report does not specify the individual circumstances.
