Doc Dreher Loses Nerve Over Dead Bodies
1945
Albert "Doc" Dreher, writing to
relatives at Kennebec, stated that he is in a
hospital in England.
He drove a truck to the front
lines and finally lost his nerve and was taken to
the hospital for a while. Driving over dead bodies
was too much for him in the battlefield in Belgium,
he stated.
His brother, Francis, is a
merchant marine and has made four trips across the
Atlantic taking food and soldiers across and can
tell of heart-rendering scenes of old men and
children begging for food.
Another brother, Glen, is a
Private in a Texas bombing plant. |
