Biloxi, Mississippi, December 13, 2014

Bouvoir, Jefferson Davis’ Historic Home Site

Thomas E. Simmons, author of Forgotten Heroes of World War II: Personal Accounts of Ordinary Soldiers Land, Sea and Air, was the keynote speaker for the reenactment of WWII’s 70^th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge which took place in the Ardennes region of Belgium. He presented five certificates of honor, four posthumously to family members—one being to Knox White (Chapter Ten, “The Last Blitzkreig”)—and one to honoree, Harry Bell (Chapter Nine, “Present and Accounted For”).  There was much appreciation expressed.  Then the re-enactors put on a realistic battle.  http://www.beauvoir.org/events/  www.thomasesimmons.net Published by Taylor Trade Publishing www.rowman.com/TaylorTrade Represented by Loiacono Literary Agency www.loiaconoliteraryagency.com
