17 APR 2020 (Delayed entry) Incoming transfer, added gender. Killed in action, on what happened to be D-Day.
08 JUN 2021 SAC to add LOD; this makes him the first soldier (whose memorial I manage) that died at someplace other than Normandy Beach on D-Day.
09 JUN 2021 Information received that The 162nd Infantry Regiment of the 41st Infantry Division was not among the units that participated in D-Day (the Normandy invasion). They had landed on Biak island in the South Pacific on May 27th, 1944 and didn't secure the island until late June. Brunetti was killed during this action.~
