Sgt Schifrin was my squad or fireteam leader and he was the most mild and gentle of soldiers, never barking an order or pushing others to do more than they, or he, thought prudent. He was an "shake n' bake" sergeant, just another draftee filling a slot left vacant by the regular army, and died assaulting a jungle woodline of no great importance, even then, except our company was to take it if the enemy were there. It was a terrible waste of his fine temperament and patient ways. Still, his bravery was admirable and should be remembered as the expression of his dutiful nature. |
