Bob,
Thanks for your reply. Dad told me recently
that after a guy got bit by a coral snake
down there and died on the spot, from then
on he slept up on the gun. Here's a picture
of him and another guy sitting there (hard
to see Dad because of the trees)... (1

CAROL: Just saw
your entry on the Camp Forrest Web. Dad was
also with the 33rd Division out of Chicago,
he was with the 122nd Field Artillery. I
have some photos he took while there from
March 1941-January 1942...I sent the photos
to Steve, and I'm sure he'll get them up
soon...however if you want I can send some
to you. I also have his Diary from that time
period,
including the days before he signed up and
his train trip from Chicago...so if you need
some more info for your book, just let me
know ......John Beck

Hello,I ran across your site
today and want to let you know
that I'm in the middle of a
graphic novel about my Dad &
WWII that features Camp Forrest.
I've been working from a wealth
of photos he took. "You'll Never
Know -- Part I" will be out in
March of '09.
Dad started out with the 33rd
Division and was transferred to
the Post Engineers as a plumber
when they had the big flood in
41 or 42. He ended up in Europe
and the Bulge. Mom worked at CF
as head of personnel. Chuck
Tyler from Chicago and Hannah
Yates from Spencer, TN.
They met there and married in
'43.
Both of my parents are still
alive fortunately, but are both
almost 90.
They don't have internet, but
I'll certainly tell them about
the interest in Camp Forrest.
C. Tyler
