Exile from Nazi Rule
Dies in Los Angeles

LOS ANGLES, June 21-(P)-
Novelist Bruno Frank, SO. a ma
tive OF Stuttgart, Germany, who
left his country in 1893 when the
Nazis went into power. died at
his home here yesterday of a
heart ailment.
He came 10 California in 1897
and became affiliated with mo-
ton pictures as writer. Novels
he wrote included The Days Of
the King" "A Man Called Ger
vantes,' and Lost Heritage"

voy was made up Of vehicles OF
all descriptions, Gingrich states
and headed down a side road.
After being lost all night and
hiding in barns and woods along
the road, the convoy bumped
into another convoy which took
/ them to Sebset where the new
US. divisional headquarters,
was located.
REORGANIZED
Here the men were organized
into provisional company
whose mission was to reinforce
Wilt. Gingrich and the men
armed only with rifles went for
ward TO meet the German ar
mored columns They never got
TO Witt but were forced to
withdraw 10 Sebset, where they
prepared TO defend the town.
HATTERING BARRAGE
The Germans pulverized the
town by artillery and tank fire
and the order was again given
withdraw" The men fell back
and were again organized into
provisional platoons and dug in
near Neufchatean to fight on.
During the night above the
din of the battle Gingrich says
he could hear the rumble Of
tanks in the distance. He said
that he did not like the sound
of it and it seemed strange
when he received the order to
withdraw. He soon learned the
reason, for in the next town
were elements Of fresh armor-
cd division and fresh infantry
division which were destined TO
turn the tide on the ferries the
next morning.
WELL EARNED REST
The tired men who had held
the German onslaught for seven
days then were packed on
trucks and taken to headquar-
tiers where they were given hot
food and a good long rest. They
were then placed on security
guard around Neufchatean,
where Gingrich spent Christmas
and New Years days.
Gingrich is the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Harold Gingrich and is
now in Saarlautern, Germany.
He has been in the service two
years and one year overseas.

Grim Battle of Bulge

311HDO11
The unflinching American
spirit which won the Battle o
the Bulge last winter has beer
vivdly portrayed by an East De
troit private who kept day-by
da(' account Of the battle.
Up i'm front when the full fury
Of the German armored nigh
was unleaShed, Pfc. Earl l.
Gingrich of 22767 Firwood, Eas
Detroit. found that the Yank'

mand that was issued 10 the
dwindling group Of soldiers that
went without sleep and food "a

ate points out. They stop

machine after going with less
than seven hours of sleep in a
week and about A X ration a

off by saying that ne WASH I

The local soldier justifieS his
detailed account of the battle
by saying, Il know you have
wondered what part we played
in the breakthrough so here
goes.
II was on the morning of Dec
Is, the diary says when the
horizon was suddenly lightened
up by the flashes of German ar
tlllery.
Pfc. Gingrich, who was trans
ferred from an armored column
10 serve as messenger was To-
Gated at Ushpelt, a tiny village
three miles from Clerveaux.
He relates how, after putting
up a determined stand and los
ing nearly company of men,
his unit was ordered TO find an
escape route into ClerveauX af-
ter one of the roads had been
cut by the Nazis.
When he reached Clerveaux
the Germans were already ham,
mering at the gates and after
picking up supplies, Gingrich
returned 10 the front lines with
orders-'Holda at All costs
CALL Up REST UNITS
The Yanks had been caught
off balance so severity that Cling
rich reports reserves were be-
ing sent up composed of soldiers
who had been given rest pass
eS' at the division rest center in
Clerveaux.
Hopeless is the way Cling
rich explains the Yank front line
position as he saw huge Tiger
tanks smashing forward. The
men were ordered to destroy
the message center and the or
der every man for himself
was issued.
FALL BACK SLOWLY
The Yanks were pushed back
into Clerveaux or what they
thought was Clerveaux for when
they got there the Germans had
zeroed the city in and were
blasting it.
The East Detroit soldier re-
ports that they cut through the
corner of Claerveaux
and headed for the divisional
headquarters at Wilt. BY morn
ing of Dec. II Clerveaux had
fallen.
The disbanded and disorgan-
lied troops were re-organized
at Wilt and sent back into bat
tie. Gingrich and group OF
men were ordered TO defend a
road junction.
They dug in, but more Ger
man tanks appeared. Two were
knocked out but more and more

STORY OF SARAN

we dug in and enjoyed two days of
rest. really shouldn't say rest as
the first night bullets were flying
every which way around the area.
I really Rugged the ground that
night, and wished my hole was
ten feet deep rather than about
a foot.
The next morning after my c
ration breakfast of hash. I asked
Pfc. Alfred st. Pierre, from De-
troit, about the shooting. He told
me to follow him. He took me over
rocky, wooded area where we
met three bearded Marines. Dur
ing a conversation with them they
told us the story. He claimed he was
lying in his slit trench when all
Of sudden Jap appeared at
the foot of it with knife in his
hand. He shot the Jap and at about
the same time, his buddy in the
next slit trench saw two more
JapS nearby. So, he in turn shot
those two. In the morning, to his
surprise, he found that one of the
three was a woman. l heard re-
ports later in the battle that our
boys had shot women who were
manning machine guns. Well, any,
how, that is the story Of the first
night.
About 4 pm of the second day,
LIST 1t. came over and told us
they were expecting a Jap tank
attack that night. I had already
made my slit trench in solid coral
rock the night before, but it didn't
take me long to dig it a foot or so
deeper thru that rock. Then came
the night, then morning, and thank
God again that there were no tank
attacks. / heard later in the day
that there was small tank battle
just before dark, and that the Japs
lost five tanks to our one, very
good score. I enjoyed those two
days of relaxation, but march order
was called.
The boys again pulled the empty
mortar carts while the trucks
hauled the mortarS, ammunition,
rations and water.
Again three other fellows and I
were told to remain behind and
guard part of the equipment. I
didn't mind that at all, anything to
get out of pulling those damn mis-
cradle mortar carts.
The trucks returned and we four
loaded on the equipment, ammu-
milton and rations and climbed
aboard ourselves.
The Wyandotte news-herald. (Wyandotte, Mich.) 1943-1963, 1945-03-12

the amount of our boys coming
back on stretchers, and on jeeps.
1t seemed as though there was one
steady stream of stretcher cases.
Back to the assembly area where
we are going to spend the night.
On the front line Of the second
defense perimeter 81 MN anti tank
guns were scattered to avoid any
possible Jap counter attack. Be-
tween the guns we're gaps, so our
platoon was to fill in between the
guns to make it impossible for any
Jap to infiltrate through that night.
I was scared as hell as we had been
told they were expecting z zap
counter attack any night now. Pfc.
Sam Parrino, from Detroit, and /
dug in together while Pfc. Walter
Baldree dug in to my left and Pvt.
Vincent Terenzio dug into my right.
We arranged the guard among the
three of us excluding Terenzio as
he was very tired and we didn't
want him to take guard for fear
he might happen to fall asleep. We
arranged it so that we would pull
one hour on and two off all night.
I took it first beginning at 800
and I just finished my guard at
900 so I awoke Parrino All of a
sudden a hell of an artillery bar
rage began falling about 800 yards
to our front left. The shrapnel
was falling all around us, and
branches, that were cut by the
flying steel, were also falling. was
again scared and didn't know what
to do. The barrage finally ceased
after about ten minutes and 1 never
felt so relieved in all my % years.
The big guns were firing into a
pocket Of JapS.
Continued next Thursday
The Wyandotte news-herald. (Wyandotte, Mich.) 1943-1963, 1945-03-12

The new position we moved into
was really a hot one. It was ap-
proximately 100000 yards behind
the front lines. We set In our guns
and no one had to tell me to dig
in this time. 1 dug my slit trench
and had ring side seat for the
show. To my left was a high rocky
hill which contained numerous jap
anese caves. Our tanks were right
at the foot of the hill firing los
MN shells point blank into the
caves, and 1 might add they were
doing a precise Job of firing. Occa-
sionally the Japs would throw a
few mortar shells or way, but no
one in our outfit got hit. 1t seemed
as though our boys couldn't locate
that Jap mortar and when it let
go, it always the hell out of me.
We nicknamed that gun Pistol
Pete, hoping all the time they
would catch up with him soon.
Orders came through to man our
guns, SO I jumped out of my slit
trench sans any hesitation. Our
target was house which supposed
ly contained some 'Japs. 1t wasn't
long after we began firing that our
mortar got a direct hit. I could see
bits of the house flying through
the air. I knew now that there
wouldn't be any Snipers in that
house for a while.
That afternoon things were pref
ty dull again, so Sgt. Paul Suro-
WITT of Wilkes Barre, Pa. 1t. Jack
Colgrove from Illinois and I struck
up game Of pinochle. We were
having a lot of fun when all Of a
sudden rifle bullets began whizzing
over our heads. 1t seemed as though
none of us gave damn as We kept
right on playing pinochle. If I re-
call precisely I lost every game.
Around 4:30 that afternoon we
moved up about 100 yards into a
wooded area which was an assembly
area. The woods contained box up
on box Of Japanese ammunition. I
guess the Japs retreated so damn
fast from that area that they didn't
even have time to take their am
munition with them. The woods
contained about ten dead Japs who
had been dead for a number Of
days as the flies and maggots were
enjoying good meal. I was
damned glad though to see all
that Jap ammunition there as that
was just that much less ammuni-
ton they could throw back at us.
I knew this was bloody battle by
