Another Soldier and The Quartermasters begins as a biography
detailing the boyhood and young adult life of the author's father.
By 1942 the world stage had been set for young men who would either
enlist or be drafted (selected) into military service. Art Nichols
along with his two older brothers had entered military service.
Sgt. Cornelius Arthur Nichols was similar to most soldiers during
World War II who had relentless inner strength and dedication. It
is important to recognize the support role of the Quartermaster
Corps for the quartermasters had a vital role in support of front
line troops. These men have been very proud of their years of
service. This book follows a Company's mission from its inception,
training in Wyoming and Oregon, and on to the Desert Training
Center (DTC/CAMA). Their arrival in England on 31 July 1944
precedes their landing on Utah Beach, Normandy. As part of Ninth
Army operations in the ETO, the Company pushed from France westward
to their destination in Germany.
