Lou In Amperville France At the Dedication In 2002, for The 507 PIR Memorial In Normandy, France.
For their bravery in jumping into the German Lines on the night of June 4th, 1944 to liberate the French and protect their comrades landing on the beaches of Normandy the next morning. Those young Americans had no equal.

  This commemorative site is dedicated to the memory of Lou Horn.

Lou passed suddenly on Thanksgiving Eve, at home with his wife Fuji. He died of a massive coronary.
Born May 1st 1924 Lou was 79 years young. He leaves his wife Fuji, Grandsons Jason & Colt and son Jim.

 The other night  (at the time of this writing), I saw a  film that was on PBS about the 507th PIR. It was nice to see him being an important part of the film, and that he was also part of the 60th Anniversary TV dedications. While I do have a early copy, I noticed that in the closing credits of the current film,  the producers had dedicated the film to the memory of Lou Horn, as well as two other of his comrades. I want to thank them for their thoughts, he would have liked that. Fortunately, he did get to see himself and his interviews in the film before he passed, We miss him and hold him in our daily thoughts.
