On saving the Lost Battalion
When you’re doing your little job, you’re almost totally unaware of the big picture. And you only get that by scuttlebutt, or rumors. Even going after the Lost Battalion — they didn’t tell us we were going to go after the Lost Battalion. We have a mission to go…to rescue these Texans that were surrounded by the Germans. I don’t ever recall having clearly in mind that whatever we do was going to be a heroic event, just going to be something that might be remembered. It was farthest from my thoughts.
