Famous WW2 Quote
"You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival."Winston Churchill

I served in E troop 7th Cav. under the command of General Vernon Mudge I ask to see what awards he may have been awarded I got no answer. He was a very good officer the men all liked him. He first came to the 1st Cav. at fort Bliss in 1942. I got nothing but praise for McArthur with my inquire. General Not a dam thing for General Mudge. Mudge got wounded on Luzon by a *** hand grenade We all loved him.Rifle Platoon Sgt. Jacob C. Myres E troop 7th Cav Five years in service
