Yes. Wasn't he a German immigrant who joined the army and received the Medal of Honor posthumously for his deeds during the Buna campaign? IIRC he got a battlefield commission. I read a 32nd Division profile that ran in Look magazine in late 1945. Or maybe it was the Post. Anyway, Boettcher was prominent in the story and his death was a great blow to the whole Division.
How do you know about him. That article was the only place I ever saw him mentioned.
