Thanks Kathy. When I was a kid, I played Army all the time and really did want to be in. My Father used to tell us three boys all kinds of interesting tales of the great WWII. He was not an especial hero but he did his duty and reading their Battalion History, the whole battalian deserved honors. They were brave men doing their duty while being shot at.

I still am amazed by how fast they got things done. They would build a railroad tressle over a river in only a few days using only one or two of their companies.
