Jimmy T. was a Paratrooper under command of Staff Sergeant Hill.

Biography

He was the Neuville Paratroopers' second radioman, and was possibly supposed to be assigned to a different squad before the storm came and made the Neuville men wind up there. He was ordered to go look for Captain Fred Hamill, and when he asked Hill where it was, Hill quoted. "How the hell am I supposed to know? Could you just go look? Please?", and when Jimmy T. left to go to do it, Hill said, "Thank you, you moron". He then returned with Fred Hamill and a Lieutenant, and helped mow down the Germans with his Thompson.
