Alex Penkala was a junior enlisted man with E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment during World War II. He parachuted into Europe twice and fought in Normandy, the Netherlands, and Belgium (where he was killed in combat). He did not attain rank or receive awards to qualify him under WP:SOLDIER and his untimely death leaves him with no general notability. His portrayal in Band of Brothers on TV is as a supporting character. Jim in Georgia Contribs Talk 21:54, 4 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
