does any one remember serving with a canadian Bill Larsh,
he joined during peacetime, underaged he stole his sisters birth certificate (born in michigan dad in windsor ontario) was found out to be underaged & a canadian, sent home & had to obtain my grandmothers & his priests signature & blessings to return. story goes he finished boot camp & was one of the first units deployed (police action). radioman, celebrated 18th birthday Tokyo hospital (have a newspaper clipping of that) purple heart, wolf hounds, spent 3 years there. never talked about once. it aged him physically & emotionaly did in 1975 at the age of 42.
any thing like information of the wolfhounds etc would be greatly appreciated.


note due to the Va fire i have never been able to obtain ANY information from the Army regarding his service, if it wasn't for that newspaper clipping & purple heart it would have been like he never spent 3 years in that hell hole.


Bill Larsh



thanks Bill Larsh Jr
