Here is my ugly mug who says officers didnt carry garands or fight up front?
“Lead By example others will follow”
Lt. Anthony J Prahl 16th regiment 1st Infantry Divison WW II
I reenact my grandfathers life as an Infantry Officer and forward observer in WW II I am also a 1st Divison researcher and Historian.
Dont believ everything you read it usually wasnt written by someone who was there.
Hence why I use my Grafathers accounts and the accounts of his men and fellow Officers and AAR’s History Reports and S-3 reports for my up coming Book “The Long Road Home” an historical account of the actions of Captain Anthony J Prahl, H and I Companies 16th regiment WW II. 1943-1945. Silver Star, Bronze Star w/ 3 OLC, CIB, American Campain Medal, ETO ribbion with Arrow and 5 Campain Stars, German Occuaption medal with Germany Clasp,PUC with OLC, Belgian Forrgerre, French Forgerre in the colors of the Medal Militaire. Served 1942 to 1953 R.I.P 1910 to 1983
He was also Samuel Fullers CO during the fight for Dawsons ridge in the NE sector of Aachen (Known as Elindorf Ridge)
Hello Koen and welcome to the site. Nice to see you actually made it. For guys that actually play CM [like me] Keon is a prolofoc designer of quality scenarios.
For guys that dont play CM, why the heck not, its only the best 3D tactical Company sized WW2 wargame out there.
Cheers.
Welcome aboard mate. Hopefully you can expand more on this history in coming weeks etc.
Cheers.

Jesse Marion Stallworth, he then went back to china with a pal of his named Capt. Hank Gilmoe, they bought a couple surplus C-46’s and started flying what ever would fit in the back they both bought into China Air Transport “CAT” the mandrin airline, any heard of this outfit?
Wow 2onepaw, great story and welcome to the forums! Do you have any pics of your pop?
no we ended up losing a lot of photos when I moved back to the states in “77” My sis has some I had great pics of him at an airfield in burma leaning against a P-38 in “45” I will try to get some up for you and the rest of the crew. He was a very interesting man.
Please do and we can add it to the gallery if you want. I’ve been getting lots of pics from other people just like you who want to show off their photos.
