The Greatest Combat Engineer of them all, General Andrew Goodpaster died 16 May 2005. He commanded the 48 Engineer © Bn. in Italy, was severely wounded at the battle of Mt. Portia. He was sent back to the States & became a special assistant to General George C Marshall. After WW11 he was The Commandant at West Point, Chief of NATO & Defense Advisor to President Eisenhower.

 

Thank you Al Kincer for this announcement. More to follow later...
