Private First Class Toynbe is a 101st Airborne soldier, and one of the Ramelle Paratroopers.

Biography

He dropped into Normandy on June 6, 1944 with the 101st airborne. He was then rounded up by a Colonel to go to the town of Ramelle. There, he and the other Paratroopers were joined by Captain John H. Miller and his Squad. He then participated at the Battle at Ramelle. During the battle, he set off a couple of Det charges, killing and wounding a column of German SS Soldiers with the explosion and shrapnel. He later helped clear a German Panzer IV Tank with Rice, Garrity, Lyle, Weller, Wilson and Gary. After clearing the tank, he spotted the German 20mm Flak Cannon and yelled a warning. Only he, Fallon, and Rice survived the shells. He then hid near the rubble and fired his M1 Garand, till he ran out of ammo, and started throwing mortars at the Germans. He is shot in the back when trying to retreat, severly wounding him, most likely killing him.

Trivia

  • After getting shot in the back, you can see him crawling away, indicating that he might of survived from his wound; however since there were no medics present, he most likely bled out
