"The Golden Warrior and the bravest man I ever knew." "When Dave
and I fought together, no matter how severe the action, he would
put his hand on my shoulder, and it gave me a calming effect." "He
was as fi erce in battle as he was gentle in friendship." -Charles
E. Eckman, 101st Airborne Screaming Eagles Holtwood, Pennsylvania
"I remember David as a kind, soft-spoken man and was intrigued that
he was also Colonel Michaelis' radio operator. All of these men
were larger than life Little is known about Michealis because he
was in command of the 502nd for such a short, yet important, time."
-Peter J. K. Hendrikx, author of Orange is the Color of the Day
Pictorial history of the 101st Airborne Liberation of Holland
www.heroesatmargraten.com Madame Rolle, owner of Chateau Rolle-a
castle located in Champs outside of Bastogne, Belgium, and was
designated as the headquarter command post for the 502nd Parachute
Infantry Regiment when she was a young girl-remembered our father
operating his radio in her foyer, and said, "He was a nice young
fellow who kept talking to someone named Roger." -Madame Rolle This
collection of letters, written by a young 101st Airborne
paratrooper soldier to his sweetheart from 1943-1945, is so
personal and matter-offact that I almost forgot that David Clinton
Tharp was only one of millions of heroes made by World War II.
David Tharp certainly deserves a book like this in his honor, and
it deserves to be read and praised. It is a mustread for every
American, and especially for veterans of war. -Palmetto Review
