Alfredo Lozano - Company E, 1940 - 1949
Photograph of Alfredo Lozano after receiving the purple heart. Company E, which was comprised of soldiers from El Paso, Texas, mostly from the Segundo Barrio and Bowie High School. On a mission to Monte Cassino between Jan. 20-23, 1944, its members were ordered to cross the Rapido River in southern Italy. They walked into a fight with German forces that's now considered the greatest military blunder of World War II. Those who weren't killed were wounded or captured. http://www.elpasotimes.com/story/news/local/2015/06/04/men-company-e-honored-bravery-wwii/30879615/
