WWII
stories, articles and salutes - -

An excellent story submitted by Captain Gerritt Ewing of his time in
Army Signal.
Includes interesting comments about Joe Lockhart, the famous signal officer that
spotted inbound Japanese bombers on his radar screen on the morning of December
7th.

A follow up story submitted by
Colonel Phillip E. Lowry (R), about his encounter with the famous Iron
Lung McClung.
Reading the Iron Lung stories reminds us of what OCS
and Signal Corps duty was all about... camaraderie, the closest friendships
ever, and leaders that we held more respect for than anyone we've worked for
since.

An absolutely great story about what it was like to go through OCS. You
must read this!
Sometimes it's hard to remember how tough life was back when we were all Second
Lieutenants. This story brings back memories of how alone we felt, how little
money we had, and yet how good life was back then too.

Retired Major General Vern Lewis on
the topic of veteran hand salutes
An excellent article on how
most veterans prefer the hand salute when the colors pass, to
holding their hands over their hearts. Well worth the read. Also
read October 30, 2008, news release regarding recent law
concerning how veterans should salute Old Glory.
