Staff Sgt. Warren Spahn, combat engineer
#3

Spahn loved to tell stories and regaled me with many of them - I wish I had had a recorder back then!
Indeed! Don't we all. Wish I could have recorded everything single encounter with every WWII vet I knew and know.

 

I sat down next to a guy reading the newspaper. He looked over the paper at me but i didn't look at him. After a few minutes he looked at me again and said, "Show me your Purple Heart!" I looked at him and it was Warren Spahn.
