Books:
'Marching Into Sunlight' by David Maraniss...can get from Amazon

'The Beast Was Out There: The 28th Infantry Black Lions and the Battle of ?ng Thanh' by Gen. James Shelton can be ordered from Cantigny First Division Foundation for $25 including shipping. The ISBN is 0890093122 if you want to try ordering it from a bookstore. (It's not listed at the online stores of Amazon and Barnes & Noble.) It's worth the effort: this is a fine book by a man who knows his stuff.

Not being a fan of the ACLU and what they stand for, I cant think a better person to bless them other than God.
