Easy Company consisted of three rifle platoons. The 3rd Platoon was originally led by 2nd Lieutenant Walter Moore before he transferred to the Pathfinders. During the Normandy campaign, 1st Lieutenant Warren Roush had temporary command of the unit after Robert Mathews' death on D-Day. The platoon was led by Edward Shames in December 1944 until the end of the war.
