IMAGEMemory as told by James Eshelman of his father Francis Eshelman's experience: "Dad had been evading for about a week in a farm house in Savigny le Temple. Somebody called out German, they bumped into each other by the back entrance. The German soldier had been conscripted and didn't want to fight. He surrendered to dad and wasn't seen again."
