Noll

Pfc Noll was killed in action on 21 June 1944, serving with Company G, 2nd Battalion, 116th Infantry Regiment. On 21 June 1944, the 116th Infantry, as part of the division's overall deployment, was positioned along the line in what was termed an active defense, with all battalions—including attached engineer units—holding forward positions. This was not a static posture: the regiment's elements were engaged in aggressive patrolling conducted both day and night to maintain contact with the enemy and safeguard the line. While the surviving records describe this activity at the division and regimental level rather than detailing the specific actions of Regimental Troops that day, this was the broader operational context in which the unit was operating. Pfc Noll was killed in action that day; the report does not specify the individual circumstances.
