Junius and Katherine: More Letters from WWII: From the Field to the Battlefront (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781483404295)

These fond letters between Junius and Katherine Harris represent the beginnings of a long and loving relationship. Their separation during WWII set the stage for their almost daily letter writing chronicles of their activities. Junius was forced to deal with Army bureaucracy while Katherine struggled to grow their small Insurance Agency and report to Junius all the family news. Junius moved from training maneuvers in Tennessee, across the Atlantic to England, then the battlefront in France, Belgium, and Germany. Junius was assigned to the nimble 965th Field Artillery Unit that was often called to support Infantry movement near the front lines. As a clerk for his outfit, he recorded company personnel actions while dealing with cramped, if any, quarters. He was nonetheless expected to stand guard duty and maintain all his own equipment. His service extended through the famous Battle of the Bulge in the winter of 1945.
