OKSooner,
Today’s Oklahoma weather with mist, drizzle and 35F temperatures is just a taste of what the participants on both sides of this battle were to soon experience.
There’s an interesting book called “Company Commander” in which a Cushing, Oklahoma man named Anderson, got caught up in the fighting. He is not the central character of the book, but appears multiple times in the action. It is a memoir written shortly after WWII. These guys were not front line troops at all, but performed way above their pay grade when it mattered.
Thanks for the post.
