Re: HH&S Btry, 3rd Bn, 13th Arty

Don:

I was there at the same time. However, I don't believe I knew your brother. I am sorry to hear of his untimely death. I was a fire direction chief at the battalion level and participated in every battalion level operation. I don't recall any battalion level awards. I do remember that one battery received a citation when it was operating independely of the battalion on one operation. I think it might have been A battery. They fired so many rounds one night that that they ruined several gun barrels.

Sorry I couldn't give you anything more.

Jim,
