Safety Corner  
Clyde Heiman - Safety Officer

“All too often, in the assumed and "taken for granted" freedom in which each successive American generation lives, the present seeks to obliterate the past - and that must never be allowed to happen! Knowing and remembering the price that past generations paid to save our nation, future generations can understand what they must do, if necessary, to preserve it.”

(R.E. Peppy Blount - We Band of Brothers)

Peppy was a pilot in the 501st BS, 345th BG the “Air Apaches”, during WWII in the SWPA, mainly New Guinea during 1943-1945. His book is well worth reading.
