Great pic of Carl Furtado and Colin Hotham, taken last year after the 36th Engineer reunion. Colin went up to Carl's place with him and spent some time on the East coast before heading back to England.

  The Flowers of War
Posted by: Walt's Daughter - 06-17-2013, 08:56 PM - Forum: TV Shows, Film, Videos - No Replies


You gotta watch this one, but warning, it's very disturbing for it deal's with the Rape of Nanking in 1937. I'm glad Lee made me watch it, for he said it was extremely well done.

 

"A Westerner finds refuge with a group of women in a church during Japan's rape of Nanking in 1937. Posing as a priest, he attempts to lead the women to safety."

  STATUS: Died as Prisoner of War, Not Above Cases

This is my first post.

 

I was wondering if anyone could explain: STATUS: Died as Prisoner of War, Not Above Cases.

 

Specifically, what does Not above Cases mean?

 

Thank you in advance!

  Putting members together - Happy Father's Day!
Posted by: Walt's Daughter - 06-16-2013, 09:27 AM - Forum: MARION'S NEWS n UPDATES n BABBLINGS... - No Replies


Just wanted to drop in and say how pleased I am to see the forum continue to grow. We've had dozens up folks sign up for membership this year, including a few WWII veterans. Wonderful!

 

Pleased to report we have put a few veterans back together this year and in fact, just heard from a member of the 1251st, and added his name to that group this morning. Sent out a notice to the other six members of that email list and one of them is also a veteran. Can't wait to see what transpires. Days like this make me feel so good.

 

While I'm here, Happy Father's Day to every veteran and every member of this group. A big heavenly hug sent upward to my dad. Love and miss you! Always, your little girl.
