Patton's 3rd Army, advance to Moselle Valley,at Verdun during, WW2, Sept 2 1944

Vee,

 

Like most of our veterans my Dad never liked to talk about it, except for a few funny things that happened.

 

One of the stories I heard all of my life was about a monkey that my dad and some of his buddies found, they figured it must have escaped from a zoo. They called the monkey Adolph and the monkey traveled with them until they were getting ready to come back to the States (my dad asked about bringing him home but he was not allowed).

 

Now Dad will talk about some of his experiences a little bit more, because we ask him about specific things. I hate to ask him to talk about the painful things, and I don't push him, but it's so important for us to know.

 

So sometimes we are privileged to have him share some of these stories....

 

Thank you, Vee!!

 

Carolyn
