the one that didn't get shot at.

the real answer is,
the 37Th Armor don't remember the company


RE: Probably Gotta be old to answer these questions - F2d5thCav - 10-20-2023

SomeJackleg--

Yep, with 3rd Armored Division, north of Frankfurt am Main.

Decades later, when I was there, German civilians working for the army on that base were still talking about The King.

For such a famous guy, he apparently served with humility and good humor.  Whatever happened to celebrities like that ?

Cheers

I'm an oldie, but goodie, and I think those questions could best be answered by an older music buff.

I am having "Happy Days" flashbacks with this one.
