Over there, did you get to read any newspapers? We had a little old newspaper over there called The Stars and Stripes. We got that all the time when we were back in the rear. What was the morale of your company? It was always pretty good. What did you think about the other guys in your group? Everybody got along good. Didn't have no trouble in the unit. How would your characterize your unit's conduct points? We had 15 Congressional Medals of Honor, Lord knows how many others medals and presidential citations. So they pretty much whipped some butt, huh? Yes. Did you see any guys become shell shocked or just couldn't take it anymore? Yeah, we had two or three they had to send home. We had one guy who couldn't stand that bombing. His nerves couldn't take it, and they had to send him home. Another one was up on a road crossing up in the front, and they were shelling that crossing all the time. One shell blowed him off the road-didn't wound him and there was an old rock building there on the corner that the medicos was using, and they took him there and got him straightened out. Another damn shell hit that building and blowed him back out. That finished him. It broke his nerve, and they had to send him out. There was a few like that. Did you take any part in any special operations with other countries? No, I spent a little time with an English artillery unit one time, but that's about all. How were they?
