I read the Niemoeller Book in Mexico City in 1977 and I found this article in it.


I wrote a note when Niemoeller died.



Note about Niemoeller
See similar John F. Kennedy note, and this note on JFK, Ted Kennedy, and John Lennon






Each book has the date in the back when I finished it along with the place I read it. This one happens to be The Divine Wind.

Thirty-three titles here. The Bantam War Series: My Mom's book on WWII, Women Pilots of World War II by her, Jean Hascall Cole; and the top right is I Was in Hell with Niemoeller.
OOPS! There are TWO Vietnam War books in there--and two copies of one of them. Darn.

One is by Audie Murphy, TO HELL AND BACK. The movie was made after it. Here's something that has a
personal connection of sorts:

Audy Murphy was famous for mowing down something like 50 Germans with his machine gun. His friend was leaning on me to take his seminar on song-writing. Mr. Murphy apparently wrote songs with this cat:

Audie Murphy was famous for mowing down something like 50 Germans with his machine gun. Got the nickname Audie because he used an Automatic gun to massacre those poor slobs and because afterwards everyone noticed that the sound of the gunfire damaged his hearing and nothing much was AUDIble to him. Thus AUDIE. Get it?
Besides being an expert in slaughtering Krauts, he also wrote songs and liked to knit. I made up the knitting part.


His songs include:



1. I Shot You, Babe
2. Killing Me Softly with .50-Caliber Ammo
3. I Shot the Jerries, but I Did Not Shoot the Deputy Down
4. Audie's Got a Gun
5. Happiness Is a Warm Gun and a Dead Kraut
6. Hey Audie, Where're Ya Going with That Machine Gun in Your Hand?
7. Bang Bang I Shot My Germans Down
8. Down by the River I Shot My Liebling Jungen
9. Just Like Tommy Gun's Blues
10. Johnny B. Good and Dead
11. Kraut Dust
12. Kill Your Krauts on Route 66
OOPS, HERE'S ONE I MISSED

This bookplate has the name of Albert M. Johnson . There was a very famous man, an eccentric rich guy, with that name the M being Mussey. He died four years after the publication of the book. Not much chance it's him.
