Summary
The first part of chapter 3 takes place on June 6th, 1944 in Ste. Mere-Eglise, France at 7:30 A.M.. It starts with Julie, Foley, and other soldiers defending Ste. Mere-Eglise from the Germans. As Julie runs around the town killing Germans, she runs into Moody who has been sent to help.

As they reunite with Foley, Julie decided to take a panzerfaust and eliminate German tanks. After she does this, they run across the field, where Elder waits in a civilian car. Foley orders Julie, Moody, and Elder to go deliver to news of victory to the higher ups, and the car ride begins.

The chapter cuts to 8:15 A.M. on Route N13, Normandy, France. As the three drive in the car, they suddenly come across Germans. While Moody stays a bit light-hearted during the ordeal, Elder grows anxious. Eventually they crash in a town, continuing on foot. Eventually, Elder hotwires a car and they make it away successfully.

As they continue to drive towards base, Moody and Elder begin arguing, ending suddenly after an outburst from Elder. As they make it to base, Moody tells the two to wait in the car. Julie reassures Elder that everything is alright.
