Update May 2021:
I am updating the roster of the 101st Airborne Division and PFC Blake is one of the members listed.
I want to inform you of an error on his page personally.
PFC Blake was not killed in 1944 but in 1945. the 101st Airborne didn't see combat before June 6, 1944 and the unit was in the Belgian Ardennes in the winter of 1944-45.
Best regards,
