Three WWII Veterans attended, including William H. Tschirhart (41st Infantry Division),
Jim Kenter (175th Field Artillery Regiment), and John Linville (75th Infantry Division). Bill is an
Associate Member of AWON, Jim is the stepfather of AWONer Barbara Kelly,
and John is the husband of AWONer Susan Linville.

 

Many thanks to these men, who were so generous with their time
and their stories, and answering questions from so many of us.
