It would have been nice to put Sgt York's name on that post

Good post and thanks, but I'm with Spartacus, cause there's many folks that have no clue who this guy was. Maybe though, Burnt Chimney, you caused a little spark of curiousity and folks will go research him.

That's the reason for the title just to stir a little thought for those that don't know of the place or the Man . Sorry guys I meant no disrespect , but you can faintly make out the name on stone base.RGINN said:

Well, I had to research to make sure I had the right guy 
I thought it was York, but then again, it could have been any doughboy for that matter. 
I just knew of his actions, not where he was born, or little else about him except for his war record. There was a song about him too if I recall correctly.

I knew you meant no disrespect, Burnt Chimney. His family was just like mine, Scot-Irish, Cherokee, and Choctaw. My God, the things he did in battle. He was either really p*ssed off or scared sh*tless. I liked that he tried to look out for and take care of his people after he got home from the war. Thanks for bringin him up.
