Thanks, Otto: I am happy to be so designated. I was a corporal in a rifle platoon under the heroic Keith Wells in a rifle company under Dave Severance. I was fortunate after the war to become acquainted with some Japanese which allowed me the opportunity to obtain the perspective from both sides. I am more than happy to discuss my experiences, those of my platoon and those that I have learned from others during my writing career. I am pleased that people might be interested.
