Marines,
    I hear this book is absolutely a must read........................ what are you waiting for?  See links and info below.  I do remember Joe Franks from the St Louis reunion in 2002.  He personally walked Smeg and I around and explained every display to us that was in their hospitality room.  I remember his stories and if he can write a book like he could tell a story in that hotel hospitality suite............ then the book is what I'm ordering.

Rock,
 
I'm attaching a photo of Joe Frank at the St. Louis reunion in 2002.  I'm sure you'll remember him.  Anyway, if you have a master email list maybe you can shoot out this info about his book. I am told that Joe is 84 now and losing his eyesight rapidly.   Here's the info:

I read this in one sitting.  Man, its like sitting there listening to him spinning sea stories about his life from 1941-45.  He was on Guadalcanal, Bougainville, Guam and Iwo Jima.  It tells no stories of personal heroics but does talk about other guys we met in St. Louis.   A lot of humor and you find that we may all be of different generations but as Marines we ALL did the same silly assed stuff.  Thanks
