On October 3 Private Lambert was reported "missing in action." On the night previous under the shelter of a reverse slope of a hill in the region of Very where heavy action between the American Forces and the German troops had been carried on, Lambert's company went for cover during the night. He wrapped himself in a German tarpaulin and sought cover under some brush.
