Boutin, Gerald J.
Gerald J. Boutin was born in Maine. He enlisted in the Army, partly to serve his country and partly to get out of Maine. Mr. Boutin served in Europe where he saw quite a bit of combat. He discusses watching guard over a civilian in her occupied home, taking part in a number of skirmishes...

The video is 46 minutes long, but well worth watching if you enjoy WW2 history.
'Hook' Boutin lived about 15 minutes from me... I've spent many hours sitting in his shop listening to stories as he worked on M1 Garands and other rifles.
