I'm sure I will enjoy it! That bookstore emailed me back and said they couldn't get a copy, so I emailed Jerry Gordon, who will send me a copy for $20!
Thanks 34th!

Yea Kyle, he does have some. Makes me very happy to see you all getting
the book. But I believe Marion has the only book with his autograph,
Homer Ankrum, that is. Rocky.
Roque J.(Rocky) Riojas
Mr. Ankrum must have been quite a character.
I did peel off the spiffy 34th division sticker that Mr. Gordon had on the package and placed it inside of my book.
The book is very detailed and very interesting. Did you know the Chaplain Hoffman?

God bless those heroes who suffered and died, for plain folks, like you and me.
War is a crime. Ask the infantry and ask the dead.
No I didn't know Chaplain Hoffman, I did hear of him, I think he was at Regt. HQ
and he was busy at the AID stations and Field Hospitals. The only ones I knew
were the guys in my platoon. HQ. Co. 1st Bn. 135th. Roque
Roque J.(Rocky) Riojas
Thanks Rocky for answering my question. All the guys he talks about in the book seem like great fellows.
Here's another good line:
Many units would have given up but it appeared the Red Bull men would continue to carry the fight to the enemy until all they had left were cooks and administrrative personnel to throw pots, pans and typewriters at the enemy.

Tried several time to reach Mr. Gordon via e-mail with no success. I used the e-mail that Marion listed. Is that correct?
Help!
Kyle
I believe he changed his email address and in fact, the email addy they had for a long time on his site is WRONG. Oh dear! ![]()
I believe they finally changed it and the new one is: jlg34d@msn.com
