Fellow member, Company of Military Historians "As a young writer and new member of the Company of Military Historians, it was my privilege to first correspond with and then get to know personally, 'Colonel John.' He was a true giant among historians and military officers, quick to share and spread the 'news of military history.' Through the years, on more than one occasion, he helped me with both short articles and other military matters and it was a great privilege to call him a friend. I feel very comfortable with the fact that at every Christmas, it was my pleasure to exchange Christmas cards with him and to tell him how much he meant to our organization and to military historians in particular. He was a legend and we will not see his likes for many years to come." More Elting Tribute Introduction Owen Connelly George Nafziger Paddy Griffith Maj. Kevin F.
