  • Robert Earl Herman, 36955530
    Robert Earle Herman, American Soldier By Paul H. Herbert Bob’s decorations include, from left to right, top to bottom: the Bronze Star with “V” device to indicate the award is for valor; the Purple Heart for wounds received, with one Oak Leaf Cluster to indicate a second award; the Good Conduct Medal for honorable service as an enlisted soldier; the European-Middle Eastern-African Campaign Medal with one Battle Star for the Rhineland Campaign; and the World War II Victory Medal. The stripes indicate his rank, Private First Class, at the time of his death. The blue shoulder patch indicates his division, the 100th Infantry Division, and would be worn on the left shoulder. The wreath indicates award to his regiment of the Presidential Unit Citation after the war. The small shield is the crest of the 397th Infantry Regiment and was worn on the overseas cap. The blue badge with a silver wreath and silver musket is the Combat Infantry Badge, awarded for service in combat with an infantry unit. The single bronze bar is an overseas service bar indicating six months service. The ribbons symbolize his medals and would be worn above the left breast pocket of his uniform. All of Bob’s medals and awards were posthumous. Because he died in action, he qualified automatically for awards such as the Good Conduct Medal, Combat Infantry Badge and overseas bar that otherwise carried a time in service requirement. The Bronze Star and Purple Heart are engraved with his name on the reverse side. 2 Robert Earle Herman Born in Galena, Illinois, January 10, 1926 Company A, 397th Infantry Regiment, 100th Infantry Division United States Army Wounded in Action near Bertrichamps, France, November 12, 1944 Died of Wounds near Rambervillers, France, November 16, 1944 Buried in Galena, May 22, 1948 3 Introduction Shortly after our marriage in 1977, my wife Nancy and I moved to Germany where I was assigned to an Army unit in Bamberg, in northern Bavaria.

  • Half Way Down the Trail to Hell
    Half Way Down The Trail To Hell A Wartime Remembrance in Three Parts By Stephen E. Kirkland i Prologue “The danger, being around veterans, the memories are so selective and so heroic that you’ve got to be careful talking to a guy like me.” George Herbert Walker Bush A while back I discovered the Library of Congress is conducting a program called The Veterans History Project. The mission of the project is the collection and preservation of veteran’s wartime recollections and documents before they are lost forever. Like many wartime veterans, I concentrated on getting on with my life. I needed a job that would allow me to marry, buy a house and raise a family. I didn’t feel anything I had experienced in Vietnam would contribute to these goals, and I felt that, for the most part, people who hadn’t served didn’t know or even care what I had seen or done. The country’s attitude was different than with the Gulf War veterans and I deflected the few inquires that were made, especially the ones that contained the words “Did ya’ kill anybody?” I was too busy dealing with the present to spend a lot of time staring into the past. Now, almost four decades after returning home, the time has come to look back and try to recreate a piece of personal history, albeit history filtered though my water colored memories. I’ve relied on a number of sources for this remembrance, not the least of which were letters that I wrote home.
