PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
Those who attended the most enjoyable 34th Reunion in Hot Springs cannot be convinced that the name came from the hot water, but rather, from the hot weather. However, when long-time friends gather, it takes more than weather to spoil the Reunion as the planned activities are secondary to greeting, meeting and reminiscing.As we are in a new year for the Association, it should be appropriate to make a new year's resolution for yourself and the Association… invite one or more of your 106th Division buddies to attend the 35th Reunion at Kentucky Lake State Park, Gilbertsville, Ky. June 25-28
The friendship fostered by military life and combat is unique in forming bonds that are not broken until we march to the angels trumpet and not to martial music. At our age, the eligible membership is reducing rapidly. Invite someone today as it can be later than we think. Personally I would like to see from the 591st FA BN return "Rocky Haynes, Bill Black, Perry Ellsworth and George Welton. We can give a "satisfaction guarantee" on the quality of fellowship you will have. See you next issue! President Brad
CHAPLAIN'S COLUMN
It is my pleasure and honor to serve as chaplain of our association this year. I follow in a great tradition of the chaplains of the division and Association.3
I was touched in giving the address at our Memorial Service in Hot Springs. During that exercise I gave several learning experiences which the 106th Infantry Division taught me when I served as chaplain, first with Division Artillery and then with the 424th. Among these were such ideals as tolerance and understanding for those of different faiths and ethnic origins. I said that the present good ecumenical relations between the various denominations and churches owed its beginning to the military chaplaincy. In the 106th Infantry Division the chaplains of the varied denominations worked closely together in brotherhood.
The next morning (July 19th), Albert A. Johnson, our member at the Veterans Administration Hospital in Memphis, was leaving our reunion following breakfast. His nephew said: "Al has something for you."
Albert: "This is for you. It will remind you of what you said yesterday about all of us being brothers." He handed me a pendant. Now, I wear a clergy cross; I have two: one is a Latin cross, given by a former parishioner. The other is a silver Jerusalem, or Crusader, cross I bought in Old Jerusalem. This pendant is different! It is made of pewter with the front side depicting the Star of David and the Cross together. Underneath are two hands clasped together, and in between is the inscription: "Coming together." On the reverse side are depicted the Ten Commandments. I could hardly talk!
This pendant is a reminder of our beloved 106th and our association. Albert Johnson himself is a living symbol of our division. His nephew pushed him in his wheelchair, but Al told us that he was very mobile in the V.A. Hospital in his motorized chair. Saying good-bye, Al said: "I'll see you next year."
Our association benefits from this spirit. God bless! Ronald A. Mosley
BAG LUNCH
Memorial to Major General Alan W. Jones, 1894-1969 Middletown, Pa. 14 August 1980.When our hardworking Adjutant, Robert W. Pierce, Sr. returned home from the 34th Annual Reunion of the Golden Lions Association he mailed me a copy of his Adjutant's Report he made at the Hot Springs Ark. meeting. It shows total membership of 466 and in 1979-1980 82 new memberships were reported. This is gratifying news to our old/and our increasing numbers of new members. We welcome and rejoice with them in this upward bound total.
A number of our friends in the Association who attended the Reunion wrote us from Hot Springs and after they returned home. The general opinion seemed to be that this session was another good one, and the members of the Reunion Committee deserved the praise they received. They were Sue and Bill Baker L 424, Pi Bluff, Ark. and Mildred and Glenn Henson K 424 Little Rock; Ark. Bill Baker was kind enough to mail me a copy of the full and interesting program.
We congratulate Kenneth Bradfield, as well as the Association on his election as President. He will have a busy year as current President and has already volunteered to be Chairman of the Committee to hold the 35th Annual Reunion at the big lakes of Kentucky in 1981. One of the members of our Board of Directors refers to Ken as a real professional. He was probably thinking of the masterful job as chairman of the 30th Annual Reunion Ken put on in 1976 at the Executive Inn, Evansville Ind. He is indeed a Pro in accepting the Presidency after volunteering to President Fred Chase to handle the 1981 Reunion.
I got out the program of that 1976 Reunion at Evansville, Ind. and reviewed it. The reading engendered a feeling of pride in our members who
4
carry on the traditions of the Golden Lion's with an annual reunion, mixed with some nostalgia and deep sorrow for the old friends who passed on that year.
In 1976 Sherod Collins was the incumbent President. Charlie Shoch was the First Vice President. Mrs. McMahon and I flew out to Evansville from Harrisburg with Pat and Josey Dohoney C422, Ken Bradfield and Charlie Schoch met us at the plane and drove us to the Executive Inn. Walter Bandurak took over from Bob Scranton as Adjutant. Bob was elected second Vice President.
Charley and Sherry Shoch were dedicated workers in the Association. They had always lived in Ohio, but after the Reunion they drove out to Phoenix Arizona where they had purchased a home and planned to retire there. Charley was a member of Service Btry. 592FA Bn, and attended a number of fie annual reunions of the Btry at Hershey Park, Sherry wrote that they had only been there 7 weeks and were not completely unpacked, when Chuck suffered a fatal heart attack in late October 1976. Sherry took Chuck back to Ohio where he was buried on Nov. 1, 1976. Leo T. McMahon, BG USA, Ret.
106th Infantry Division,

We are indeed pleased to have had this fine group in our city and look forward to the opportunity of again being your host. Sincerely, Carl E. Kasemeier, Hot Springs Convention Div.

HOT SPRINGS 1980
For those of you who have never attended a 106th Convention, you don't know just what you have missed. There is such a feeling for one another and the joy of seeing old friends again that cannot be explained. There is always the sadness of missing those who have been at previous Conventions and have missed this one for some reason or other. You miss them as you would your own brother or sister.We started out leaving sunny, cool Florida and ended up everywhere with temp. so high we could hardly breathe.
Stopped in New Orleans to do the Tourist spots. I had been there a few times but this was a first for Isabel.
The heat was so intense that we left after a few days and made our way for Hot Springs. To see the dry fields and ruined crops of corn, soy beans and cotton was devastating and a reminder at Nature can bring us down very quickly. The heat was intense reaching 108 degrees. The coolest spot was our air conditioned car. To talk with the natives they all predicted increased prices in the market place. Then, I guess I am a skeptic--Every year it is something different to raise prices. It is either too hot; too cold; too wet; too dry; one never runs out of excuses to rip off the public.
Having arrived early at Hot Springs we were still greeted by folks who came even earlier than we. Immediately had lunch with Sherod Collins and the Schuttes at a lovely converted railroad station. Took a tour around Hot Springs with Sherod as he had already cased the place. The heat chased us back to our air conditioned hotel and then a swim in the pool which was carved out of the side of the mountain. The pool area was so hot that if you didn't wear your flip flops or some such protection you would get third degree burns. The water was welcome though warmer than our pool back in Florida.
Bright and early we played golf on a course that had to be laid out by a Navy man who thought he was in a constant storm. Every hole had a tilt to either left or right; you could hit the ball straight for the first time and find it rolling down a slope so that your approach shot to the green would be 60 yards straight up in the air. We managed though, and it was a little cooler on the course. The next day we played a flatter course and this was more enjoyable.
The committee of Sue and Bill Baker and Mildred and Glenn Henson did an excellent job and were always trying to please and look after our gang. They tried to chase away the heat to no avail but did manage to change part of the program to keep us indoors instead of out on the lake front where you would expect it to be cool but was not.
Quite a few of us took a ride on a "DUCK". You Navy GI's will remember these better than the Army guys. It, for the girls, was a wide open bus which took us on a tour of the Town and as we approached the lake breaths were held as we descended a steep mud slide right into the water. Gals couldn't believe it be there we were cruising on the lake. Again, it was hot and we kept hoping for rain to cool us off. We had our wish for on the way back a freak storm came up and drenched us but we were happy about it. Most had wash and wear clothes on and were so hot it was a relief. While the rain was driving in the wide open DUCK resourceful Doug took down a lifebelt and blocked most of the rain on his side and before you knew it many followed suit.
The warm up part was just as it is supposed to be--warm greetings to those old friends and the greeting of new friends. There is an old saying in the 106th--There are no strangers in the 106th only friends we have not yet met. Wine flowed freely and the finger sandwiches disappeared fast. Joe Matthews granddaughter Kim was trying to hustle drinks for tips and succeeded in some instances.

Anne was there too, and she reminded us so much of her lovely Grandma who graced our Conventions for so many years. Kay Loveless continues her support and love for all of us--this trip no in-laws. Kay joins in every activity and lets nothing slow her up in her enthusiasm. Missed the Bickfords who missed their first stateside Convention in the history of the Association. Pleased to greet the DeHeers who have now moved to Florida and of all things moved directly behind one of our neighbors from New Jersey, a man with whom I had played poker with for seventeen years every Thursday. We hope we can all get together when we get over vacationitis.
Our tour of Mid America Center was a surprise. I don't think many of us realized what we were about to see. It would be impossible to try to describe the various gadgets and the use of air and water and other energy sources displayed. I found a use for my old pool vacuum hose. They were selling pieces of hose which sang tunes as you whirled them over your head. Needless to say they sold like hot cakes. Just like the hoola hoops of another year someone made a fortune out of nothing. Why couldn't I have thought of it. Lord knows I have thrown away enough hoses to make me rich.
Amazing, we didn't have to push a bus this year; I told you that Committee did a good job.
Our Memorial Service was outstanding. With our own Chaplain Mosley taking part and Joe Matthews son Joe also it was a family Memorial. It just so happens young Joe is stationed at a nearby Air base. Mosely was stirring in his remarks.
Of course there was always time for the women to shop and shop they did despite the heat. I still maintain that I want the shopping concession in Heaven as the women will shop there too, even if it is for special wings.
We went out in the evening 149 strong to see "Papa Bear-Mama Bear" a show which had just finished a Broadway performance. The show was excellent; the changing of scenery quite professional and the singing had you jumping. The walk up and down the mountain left many breathless but so did the show and the moon look down upon us as this was an outdo show much like the one we had Jacksonville, Florida, the Cross and Sword.
There was much fraternizing after we returned. The Wells, Jim and Maydean Wells were good hosts as usual. The Hotel

Was unusual in that it had a fancy bar the lobby and a dance floor and a band which played several nights we were there.
The Men's luncheon and business meeting was lively. There was a time we didn't know from one year to another where the next Convention would be but this year we had every vying to take it on in the future. From Kentucky next year to requests from New York City, Atlanta area, Savannah or Jekyll Island, Wisconsin and can't remember where else. Had to set up a Committee to review and recommend a site for the future. Some people got rather testy when New York City was mentioned. The comments about the expense have been born out with the Democratic Convention; it is costing $1 ,000 or more for a delegate to be there for four days. I don't think the 106th wants to spend that kind of money. We have to keep to resort areas where families can combine vacation with reunion. Women have to shop too; so be careful of big city invitations. For Hot Springs and the cost of getting there and staying there we were fortunate in getting some 150 persons to attend.
The Association is in fairly good financial condition due to the increase in dues and the Memorial Fund is in excellent condition. Our Memorial will be re-painted as soon as construction around it is completed and we hope to have a photo of our new addition to our plaque-we are adding the line "General Allen W. Jones, Commanding".
As always the piece de resistance is our Banquet dinner. This is the time the shorts, the jeans give way to the evening gowns of many styles and colors and our women once again become women. You can believe what you want about ERA and WOMENS LIB, but I like my women to be women in all their grandeur of an evening gown. I don't want to see them in manish shirts and men's jackets. The men excelled themselves with their suits of many colors too, and looked dignified. Some are hard to recognize when they are dressed up. I think sometimes we have become too casual in our dress. The dinner and dance were a huge success.
There was one big void at the reunion and especially at the dance. General McMahon and his lovely Wilda were conspicuous by their absence. The General always managed to dance with all the pretty girls. However, I can report that they are both well having heard from them before the reunion. Circumstances just wouldn't permit the long trip to Hot Springs. We look forward to seeing them in Kentucky next year.
It was good to see Clay Rarick show up after his bout with cancer of the mouth. He looked good to all of us and took part in all the activities. You just can't kill that 106th fever. Keep up the good work Clay.

I had no idea who our speaker was supposed to be that night but we sure lucked out when the reserve speaker came. He was George Fisher, an editorially caricaturist. He started off by giving us some good old down to earth folk humor and music. I wish I could remember his tunes, one was a really toungue twister. He then went on to draw Nixon, Ford, Carter and many others easily recognizable. Then he picked on Doug Coffey to do him and a good time was had by all getting a laugh at Doug's expense. As Fisher
11
said in his remarks, we need humor in our lives and must be able to laugh and especially to be able to laugh at ourselves. Then we will not have ulcers and indigestion. Reverend Mosely was also selected and the laugh he had on Coffey turned to his own laugh on himself. All in all it was a memorable evening.
So we come to the farewell breakfast where it is sad to say good bye until next time. It seems there is never enough time together and never time to say goodbye to all. Some have to leave early for the Airport, some just don't make breakfast. For those we missed, God Bless you and keep you till we meet again.

Some of those attending were not going straight home. The Gliders, Fritz's, the Zolls were taking off to hunt for gold. There is quite a run on prospecting in that area right now. We hope they strike it rich so they can afford to come to next years Convention and buy us all a drink. We took off to visit our children and grandchildren and spend some time in Ohio with Willie Garn's brother and sister in law. They had a dinner party for us and friends of theirs and ours who have all made it to Florida. Then on to Jersey to visit family and take part in a family wedding. Then to visit with Tom and Flo Bickford who were so disappointed they missed our reunion. To the Jersey shore and on to Atlanta to visit our other daughter.
Managed another round of golf with Sherod. We always manage to get together when we visit Atlanta. It is like old home week. Finally arrived home safely, thank God, to our Florida horn It might be significant to the changing of the times. We say only twelve campers on the road from Norfolk, Virginia to Florida. I guess the cost of gasoline is taking its toll. Getting 4 to 8 miles per gallon is tragic at prices of $1.25 to $1.35. Sic gloria mundi. DSC COGL

OUR TRIP
Greetings to all and we hope everyone had a pleasant trip home.
Our trip started on July 10 riding across Fla. to Ala. and up through Miss. We didn't stop in Mobile but as we went on there didn't seem to be signs of side streets or motels and were beginning to think we would have to sleep in the car. We rode on to Hattiesburg MS. The first two motels were full so we had to ride further down the road to find a place to sleep. In the morning we stopped in Memdenhall, MS and visited friends we hadn't seen in many years.
We arrived at my nieces in Little Rock, Ark in the late afternoon to find, her husband, Dick fixing the air conditioners. Got a little scared; but he was able to fix them. While there we watched different members of the family play ball and also went out on their boat on a lake near them.
Many others must have had friends r relations living near by for others stayed Wed. night near Little Rock.
It was nice having only an hours ride to Hot Springs.
At lunch our table was near the door so we ended up being the welcoming committee as members of the 106th came in for lunch.
The reunion was a great success, the speakers, Mid America Center, and all the goodies we received; thanks to the committee.
Sunday we left for Lexington, III. and on the road we waved to many 106th going in the same direction. Also saw many at lunch time and in the motel at dinner time in Sikeston, Mo.
Don't know what the Hotel did to keep the pool water a little cool, but all the other places the pools were like a hot baths.
While in Lexington, Ill. the weather was lovely so we were able to eat on the porch. Went to Blommington Lake t or a day and to Country club at night for dinner. While at dinner we saw the youngest child (1 1/2) with her mother and dad on the golf course. She picked up the balls.
Then we rode on to visit Rick and his family. The weather was nice so we were able to be outside a lot.
In that neighborhood all the young ones call me "Grandma".
We watched Rick supervise the shot-put at a track and field meet the Family Court was sponsoring.
Sorry we didn't stop in the court house or have the Pierce's over but the time went fast.
Now, we are home enjoying cooler weather than other parts of the country have had this summer.
We missed seeing a lot of you folks, hope all is well with one and all.
The Pete Houses' came to Palm Coast, Joanne, as president of the state PTA was here to install the officers.
Pete sat with us at the dinner instead of at the head table, Pete helped with the showing of the slides (the film part of Joanne's talk, which was excellent.) The House's came home with us and stayed over night (Schutte please note they didn't have an overnight bag either).
We had a nice visit and hope to get together soon, and more often. Take care and enjoy the months ahead.
Fondly, Marge and Dick DeHeer

Dear John, It was a pleasure to gather with our Golden Lion friends in the friendly community of Hot Springs, Ark. We learned that 114 degree weather is not much different than 90 degree weather at home! Otherwise the program was excellent and the facilities comfortable. Service Battery 591st Field Artillery slipped a bit in attendance no doubt due to the heat and the travel distance. Present were the Bradfields, Schlessers, Viola Reilly, Mike Linebarger, the Walter Clarkes and daughter and yours truly, In as much as Ken Bradfield is the convention host next years all Red Leg Artilleryman should turn out for the Kentucky Dam area. I will attempt to contact as many as possible when the time comes. Finally I want to thank you and your wife for the fine job with the Cub magazine. Without you there would be no Association! Best wishes, Bob Ringer
Dear John & Stella: So good to see both of you in Hot Springs. Enjoyed your company and look forward to seeing you next year.
The Van loaded with various Gilders, Zolls, and Fritz's made it back to Ohio safely after numerous stops in Harrison, Arkansas, Branson, Missouri, Springfield, Missouri and Vandalia, Illinois. Other than sorting out luggage every nite we had no major problems.
There were 2 members of our party who had no voting rights when it came to decisions. Ed and Martha were bad so we didn't let them vote. Jeanne got a lesson on how to make donuts and fill them in Branson, but we're sending her back for advanced lessons because when we started to eat them, there was no filling. The score of the card games for the whole trip ended up even. Also, we did not find our fortunes in the diamond fields at Murfressboro.
W.C. and Sue Baker, Glenn and Mille Henson did a super job on the convention. We certainly enjoyed the whole stay and we all want to thank them again for a great time and hope they were able to relax and unwind a bit after a lot of tension. Again ARKANSAS, "YOU WERE GREAT".
CONGRATULATIONS to the new officers and Board of Directors. Last year group did a fine jab and I'm sure the new ones won't let us down.
We especially missed Tom and Flo Bickford. Also Ray and Vi Untiedt, and E.C. and Zada White. Sure hope all of them can make it next year. Some old faces showed up and it was great to see them.
The word on Martha's cast is that it will come off Sept. 9. She appreciated all the kind words and thoughts.
How about Albert Johnson and his nephew? Seeing and talking to them was the highlight of the convention.
We're all looking forward to seeing both of them in Kentucky next year.
Enough of this rambling on, Best Wishes to All, John and Martha Fritz
Dear John and Stella, It was so nice to see you folks in Hot Springs; plus all of the new faces. We Ohioians enjoyed ourselves thoroughly; even if Mother Nature tried to scald us all. Our hotel was great and those "baths" are fantastic; going back again just for that treatment. We would like to "Thank" our hosts for all of their efforts; everything came off beautiful.
Now for those persons who were going to look for my "flag" when we found all of those diamonds; let me tell you my sad tale. We found NONE. The diamonds are located in a state park with an air conditioned building with all of the information needed to make your big find. That is as far as Martha Fritz got; with her cast she decided to skip all of that fun. The other 5 of us headed out into this huge furrowed field to find our fortune. Millie Zoll found a picnic table and that was the end of her travels; the other 4 of us kept going; because Bob knew a secret area??? While Millie is sitting at the picnic table; a park ranger is checking grounds and mentions to her;
14
the temperature at the ground level is 120 agrees; that was the last of Millie we seen, followed shortly by the rest of our group. It was an experience; but my next time will be when it is the middle of winter; I can always add clothes.
Last week end Bob and I stopped over to see Chuck and Willie Garn who are in the process of relocating in Cuyahoga Falls; so are busy cleaning and packing; gave them report on convention and they promise they will attend the next session. Both are doing well.
See all of you in Kentucky Lake Park; sounds like another good convention.
Sincerely, Jean Gilder

1980 REUNION
ANOTHER IN A SERIES OF VERY SUCCESSFUL REUNIONS TOOK PLACE IN Arkansas last month. About 150 people can vouch for it.
After loading up one of our local compatriots near Atlanta, (Ira Bottoms of the 592 FA, a first timer) I drove through Alabama, Mississippi, Tenn.Arkansas arriving early on Monday, first arrivals I think.
On Tuesday, our genial hosts Bill and Sue Baker came in. On Wed., the Coffeys, Schuttes, Schlessers and a few others drifted in. Of course, the Schuttes, Doug and I had to get in a little golf then.
Thursday the remainder of our group came in and there was much laughter, happiness, hugging, hand-shaking going on. Then started a really smooth flowing program.
Busing was held to a minimum--the two occasions being a trip to the Mid-American Center, a museum displaying a large number of scientific phenomenon, our job being to figure out what made them work, and a trip to an outdoor play Friday night. The play was most entertaining. Otherwise we relaxed indoors, where the lobby was pleasant and the hotel adequate.
We had a number of first timers and we want to urge them to continue their attendance since the more you go, the better it is.
The meals were good, the fellowship outstanding, and we're ready to go again. Some of the group went on to other sites West and North. Harriet and I arrived home Sunday late--tired but happy.
A special thanks is extended to our hosts, the Bakers and Hensons, all of whom worked hard and were rewarded with a fine reunion. Sherod Collins

EUPEN
Well, what do you know-there I am military as hell on the steps of the Eupen Burghaus turning the Town back to the Belgians. Ah, there was a lush assignment. 52 pieces of realty, one brewery, ten saloons, one big movie theatre, biggest swimming pool in Europe, five bands and orchestras, messes where every G.I. sat down to a white table cloth, served by frauleins (who quit regularly with the complaint, "Machin kaput" and thighs black and blue from pinches.) One club for the officers, two for the men. Troops, the whole recon company and a battery of artillery. I had a miniature castle with five servants, a French Housekeeper, a Swiss chef and his wife, and two Belgian maids, one of whom proved to be a Deuxieme Bureau rep. I loved it. The style of life to which I would like to come accustomed. Herb Livesey 592th

Dear Sirs:
It is with deep regret that I inform you of the death of my son, Robert E. Maxson of 511 Main Street, Trenton, Missouri, 64683 on May 20, 1980.
Please cancel the Cub and other magazines of the 106th Inf. Div. Mrs. Jeanie Maxson, 201 E. 9th St. Apt. 2, Trenton, Mo. 64683
We are deeply saddened by the news of the death of our Hot Springs Reunion Chairman Bill Baker. Bless you Sue.
WHO AM I
Have you ever asked yourself the question "Who Am IT' Have we answered: I am an American. I am a Veteran of World War II. I put my life on the line for my country and fellow American. I by the Grace of God was spared to continue my sojourn of life in a free America. I am a dedicated citizen concerned with the future of my nation, therefore I do take an active part in my nation, community, and church. I will keep elected leaders informed as to my position on matters of my government. I will take an active part in this years presidential election by informing others where I stand and encouraging them to vote. I am part of America and America is a part of me.LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Dear Walt: I just received the Cub and am reading the letter that I sent about award or citation from the French.I was with the 589th at Parkers Crossroads and we were captured the 23rd of Dec. After we were captured we did a lot of walking until we came to a city called Gerolstein. We were there about two months. I did not get to a "Stalag". We were at Gerolstein about 2 months and then we left there and started walking from town to town. They told us we were going to a P.O.W. camp. We were going through Bad Ems when I collapsed on the street and the Germans took me to a Catholic hospital. I weighed about 70 lbs. I have always wondered if they ever got to a P.O.W. camp. Sgt. Shook was our gun commander, I have forgotten most of the names. A few of the names I remember are ? Pafford, ? Lombardo, ? Voscelyn, ? Willsey.
I am retired now. I worked at Fort Hamilton Hospital for 25 years. I started in the housekeeping dept. for about 5 years. Then I was the receiving clerk for 8 years. After that I ran a print shop and operated 2 offset presses and did sign printing.
I have been retired 3 yrs. and like it. I like to fish and bowl in four leagues in the winter.
I would appreciate any information you might have on the citation or how the fellows made out on the march from Gerolstein. Cecil B. Tipton, 1341 Parrish Ave., Hamilton, Ohio 45011
Who was the member coming to reunion who was flown to Hot Springs, West Virginia instead of Arkansas.
Whose wife stayed home from reunion so they could afford to buy a septic tank?
Did you see photos of the Gallagher's new grandson and of the Crawford's great-grandson?
GAMBLING
Recently visited a gambling casino in Atlantic City as an observer.
At blackjack table saw a woman take a $100.00 bill from her purse and put it on the table for chips. She also took a piece of paper from her purse and started to read. I was curious and glanced over her shoulder and read title on paper "Prayer to St. Jude".
This got me to thinking, "What is the purpose of prayer?" THE EDITOR

Dear Bob: Another year gone by so rapidly - we used to be considered as the "Young Turks" are now the "Old Guard." Am thinking that in another four years I'll retire from my role as Director of Personnel for the Baltimore County School System after a 35 year career in education.
Recently I had the pleasure of visiting once again with Mrs. Mary O'Toole, the 94 year old mother of Lt. O'Toole killed by an air raid over the POW camp many of us were in following the famous Battle of the Bulge. I still keep in contact with the widow of Hugh Mayes (KIA) as well as Barney Alford, Jesse Caldwell, John Schaffner, Bernard Smidansky, William Streeter, Henry Thurner, Marshall Winslow, and Tommy Wohl. Although living in the same area, have not recently seen Austin Byrd but know he is well and prosperous.
After reading my edition, I always send the CUB on to Don Regier of our staff who served also with the 106th. It's always a pleasure to receive the magazine and all those associated with it are to be highly complimented for the quality it has represented over the years. Walter M. Snyder
Dear John & Stella: We had a short visit with Bob and June Walker and Bob and Jean Pierce on their way home from the reunion. I was able to get a few hours off to go out to dinner with them. They gave us a report on what we missed by not being able to attend.
We missed seeing everyone and we hope conditions will be different next year. Gene & Sally & Sandy Saucerman
Dear Bob, Enclosed are my dues. Maybe one of these years I'll be able to make a convention. Spotted in the Cub that Dan Bied had authored a couple of books on the 106th. Reviewed the books for the UPI Broadcast and Newspaper newswire. Dan and Millie visited the UPI office in Chicago and we reminisced about old times. Anyone else authoring books should send them along to me. Only too soon we won't be around to remember anymore. Walter W. Martin
Dear Bob: Enclosed are my dues for 1980-1981, and you will be interested in the clip on Dick DeHeer. This story was in the Palm Coast News this week, which is published by the Daytona Beach News Journal. We have been in contact not yet face to face, only by mail.
Sorry to again miss the reunion, but this is busy time at the bandshell. Carl M. Hulbert
Dear Bob: I'm out of work permanently on 100% disability, suffering from loss of my leg. Have terrible headaches almost 24 hours a day for almost 6 years. Recently discovered I have an ulcer which doesn't help matters much. Have been doing a little fishing at camp and am doing some gardening here on our 4 acres of land in Parish. I moved off the 136 acres farm we owned about 3 years ago. Before we moved I donated 3 acres of land to the American Legion Post 601 in Parish, for their new building.
Edward J. Smith
Dear Bob: I was an original Cadre member to "A" battery-313th Field Artillery, 80th Division, coming from Fort Bragg, North Carolina. When the 106th Division was activated at Fort Jackson, South Carolina I was a Cadre Member to "A" Battery-589th Field Artillary. The 589th F.A. was my outfit all the way to the Battle of the Bulge of which I was the Motor Sergeant. Floyd L. Elston
Dear Bob: Katherine has been having hip and leg problems - hope to make next year's reunion. We are still catching lots of Bass. J.B. Strickland
Dear Bob: Enclosed please find my check in the amount of twelve dollars, my wife Olga Finlayson was an Army Nurse during the Korean conflict. My older boy, Ken is a 1st Lt. now with the Recon platoon of the 1st Brigade of the 9th Inf. Div. stationed at Ft. Lewis, Wash. Ken Finlayson
Dear Bob: Enclosed is check for dues and five for Memorial Fund, I possibly more than most, had contact with the men when dying or immediately after and know what fine young men they were. Hence, I cannot forget some memorial to them.
I have been living in retirement in Duneland Beach, outside of Michigan City, Indiana and spend two months in Stuart, Florida. One or two weekends I return to my parish. It is so good being with them. Rev. E.T. Boyle
Sir: I recently married and my wife and I are both retired. I was in Btry a 591st field arty. We hold a reunion every two years. Our next one Is in August 7-8-9-10 at Toms River, N.J. I enjoy reading the CUB and every now and then I read about someone from the btry. Joseph A. Meola

Dear Bob: Just a note to let you know that my roster of Co. L men has now grown to 28.
I recently had the pleasure of spending a couple of days with Capt. J.B. Huyett was Co. commander of Co. L. 423rd until Dec. 1944. When captured he was taken through Berlin to Poland where he escaped and managed to reach the Russian lines. He finally returned to the U.S. via way of Odessa on the Black Sea and Alexandria, Egypt.
He retired to Charlestown W. Va. in 1972 after serving as a military advisor to a U.S. Senate committee. In July 1979 it was discovered he had cancer (multiple mycloma) and has been undergoing chemo therapy since that time. Needless to say he is meeting this challenge with the same determination and bravery that he showed the Germans and the men of Co. L. in Dec. 1944. I'm sure that if anyone can beat this disease, he will. C. Henderson
Dear Bob: As usual it appears we will not make the convention this year for the same reason as given past 4 years. Eleanor's mother back in nursing home after being hospitalized for her 4th (or 5th) stroke last month.
God willing, will make a convention or one of those annual visits to St. Vith before I get too old to travel. Hit 70 last 2/22, put on a lot more years than I expected when I was reduced to 100 lbs. Best regards to you, yours, and all the 106th Lion Div. Vets. Leo R. Leisse, Sr.
Dear Editor: Enclosed please find my dues for 1980. Some months ago I received a phone call one Sunday evening from a former fellow-member of the 106th M.P. platoon whom I had last seen in 1945 in Karlsruhe, Germany, Ken Facey. It was a tremendous surprise and satisfaction to again talk to someone I had not any contact with in 35 years. I was Platoon Sgt. and he was a pfc assigned as Major Mowlds driver. But he (and Dale Harned) went on to O.C.S. while we were still in Germany, and subsequently had a great Army career, including Viet Nam, and retired as a full colonel. So his success, I feel, is an achievement both his fellow platoon members, as well as himself, can justly feel proud of. Ken and I are both hoping that, some way or other, we might eventually arrange some kind of reunion of the members of our platoon. Myles Brazill
Dear Bob: we are very sorry to miss the reunion in Hot Springs, Ark. We had looked forward to going there but my 94 year old mother is still living with us. It takes both of us to see about her. She does not want to go to a convalescent home.
Cofer's Seed Co. called me to come to work during the busy season in the Spring. I worked March, April and almost three weeks in May. Then Mr. Cofer had surgery in June an called me back for two weeks. Then I was ready for 12 month's vacation. H.E. Mansfield, Jr.
Dear Bob: I'm just out of the hospital with internal bleeding and on a strict diet right now. James Brackett
Bob: Sorry I could not be in Hot Springs due to illness of my wife. I want to thank all you guys who have taken time to write to me, you will never know how much I really appreciate it and I hope to meet you all in the future at one of your reunions. I have received my first copy of the Cub magazine and sure did enjoy reading it. Geo. Whisenhurt, RT 1, Big Sandy, Texas 75755
Hi, Just a note to say "Hello" to all members of the 106 Div. Assoc. especially Walter Bandurak and his wife, Lillian. I'm a former member of the medical detachment, 81st engineers. I'd be especially interested in hearing from Doc. Cessna. Neil Gossom, Harry Baird, Shorty Andrews or anyone from my old unit. I'm kind of semi-retired now. My wife and I moved here to Chula Vista, Ca. in 1977 and we really enjoy the beautiful weather, after 57 years in Wisconsin, this is really a treat. I work 3 days a week for a company in San Diego which keeps me out of trouble and still gives me time for a little golf. Leo P. Kreuser
Dear Bob: I am still serving as American Legion Service Officer, and also still a Volunteer Driver for the local Red Cross Chapter. During the last few months I have taken several Red Cross training courses on disaster Services, was recently appointed disaster chairman of the chapter. I saw some active service after the disastrous tornado of 10/3/79, which heavily damaged part of the town of Windsor Locks, including Brasley International Airport and the adjoining Conn. Air Nat. Guard facilities, demolishing the USAF museum. Waldo B. Pierce

Dear Bob: I am a member of the 106th Rcn. since the division was activated in Ft. Jackson.
Our unit started having reunions in 1969 and in August of this year we will again meet,. this time Franhenmuth, Michigan. We meet every two years. Perhaps someone from the rcn. troop who we have been unable to locate will read this. Bill Randall
Dear Bob: Enclosed is check for my 1980 dues. I sure enjoy reading the CUB. So far I'm still semi-retired working two days a week. Last July I went to Alaska, salmon fishing, I caught a 55 lb. king salmon. This year I went to the High Sierras Mts. trout fishing. Lots of fish, lots of snow. Just got back from fishing in Noranda, Quebec, Canada. Good fishing. I'm getting my share of fishing after being tied down to market operating all these years. Keep up the good work. Joseph Litvin
Dear Bob: Although business commitments preclude me from attending this year's reunion am always happy to receive the CUB and renew old acquaintances with dear friends of W.W.II. At present I am a Commodities Broker with Mercantile Trading Company here at the Board of Trade in Chicago and occasionally run into buddies from the Division. See Dr. Lifchez of the 331 Med. Bn.
Continued good luck and I watch the progress of the association with great anticipation. Gilbert Marcus
Dear Sir: I was a member of Headquarters Co. 1st Bat. 423 Inf from the beginning at Fort Jackson, was captured on Dec. 19th, Battle of Bulge. I have yet to see any names in the Cub from my company. Do you have names and addresses of the original men in the 106th or anyway I could find these names. I would like to get in touch with some members of my platoon. Howard S. McCarty
Dear Bob: Enclosed is my check for current dues. Rosalie and I celebrated our 60th wedding anniversary on June 16th. We now limit our driving but we still hope to attend one of the reunions of the Golden Lions. Warm regards and best wishes. Francis A. Woolfley
Dear Sir: Enclosed please find check for $20.00; $10.00 for my 1980-1981 dues and $10.00 for the 106th Div. Memorial fund in memory of Emil M. Solecki.
I served with Emil in the service battery of the 592nd field artillery battalion. My wife and I were very saddened to learn of his death through the CUB magazine. We had the pleasure of visiting Emil and his family some twenty years ago. We also toured Europe in 1972 visiting some of the places where I served such as St. Vith, at which time I was surprised and delighted to find the memorial to the 106th Infantry Division. Glenn O. Hartlieb
Dear Bob: My wife, Penny, has had surgery on the left side of her face and has to return to wheeling the second week of July and then again around the 21st of July, so it will be impossible for us to attend the reunion in Hot Springs, we held our reservations as long as possible hoping that things would change, anyway, first things first.
Enclosed is a check for dues and memorial fund, we will miss seeing old friends and enjoying the company of the 106th. Fred R. Carter
