To the Apache warrior who w ill not see this, thank you for your courage. And sacrifice. I hope you find peace. Coming from a New York newspaper clip from a German General saying.......
" that the most dangerous American soldier is the American Indian.. he is utterly brave & a dead shot.. he is an expert in camouflage that been inherited from his ancestors without the benefit of science and great laboratories.. he moves without orders..he's an Army within itself.. he's one soldier Germany must fear.."
Viva Arizona, she raises strong men. When Pearl Harbor was hit, as soon as they heard, Dad and his cousins walked 20 miles to the county seat. It was cold, sleet falling, but they walked. At the county courthouse, they sat on the steps waiting for morning when the recruiter would open. People saw them asked why they were there.
You make light of the ability of the Apache Scout . They could smell any living thing from a half mile away. They we so silent they were ghosts .they knew the thoughts of every creature in their areaWhen they found out, restaurants sent breakfast and hot coffee. People loaded with dry blankets and oilcloth tarps to hold off the rain. That was the last time anyone saw them till 1945. Elders refused to talk of their experiences but let us know quietly, like WWI, we got permission for revenge for evil done to us and to the Jews.
