Guys who did that Korean War. Couldn't have been pretty. We both know that because we know what the Korean terrain looks like and how cold it gets there.

Excellent. I'll be in touch.

At 11:39pm on November 8, 2010, Clark Lohr said…: J.R., Clark Lohr here. Thanks for friending me. You're clearly not new to writing novels but we're both new to Oak Tree Press. I've got a so-called "Pennsylvania Dutch" last name. I've never been there. I'll visit someday. Are you going to The Big Chile in Santa Fe?
