‎ORIGINAL AND HANDWRITTEN DRAMA-FILLED DIARY OF A PRIVATE IN THE ‘BATTLE OF HURTGEN FOREST’ THE LONGEST SINGLE BATTLE IN U.S. HISTORY AND ONE OF THE BLOODIEST BATTLES IN WORLD WAR TWO‎

‎Hurtgen Forest Germany Belgium Western Front. Good. 1944. On offer is an exceptional and fascinating handwritten diary of Anthony Pasternak a private in the 387th Anti-Aircraft Artillery Battalion Battery A recording action in one of the deadliest and lengthiest battles of World War Two the "Battle of Hurtgen Forest". Hurtgen Forest was a series of fierce battles that were fought from September 19 1944 to February 10 1945 between American and German forces on the Western Front. It was the longest battle on German ground during WWII and went down in history as the longest single battle the U.S. Army has ever fought. Pasternak's anti-aircraft battalion was attached to the 47th Armored Field Artillery Battalion for the duration of the war. This diary presents an extraordinary account of what it was like to be a soldier on the ground during this pivotal and bloody battle. The diary begins with 16 pages of names and addresses of friends from the war friends at home those he met in England and in Paris. There is also an address for his "Special Girl" and "Sweetheart" Stella Dobazynski who also lived on Medill Avenue in Chicago and whom he seems to have married since there is a note "Anthony Pasternak and Stephanie Dobzynski - married in Chicago January 8 1946." There is also one address entitled "My sweetheart! Miss Stella Dobazynski". After the addresses end the diary entries begin. The first entry is a quick summary of the points up to the battle: "Left U.S.A. Feb. 9 1944. Arrived in England on February the 25th 1944; Left England July 23rd 1944; Arrived in France July 25 1944; Went into action August the 1st 1944; Lost two M-7s. August the 10th 1944; Left France Sept. 9 1944; Arrived in Belgium September the 9th 1944;" After this quick list the diary entries expand in length and detail. "September the 9th 1944 - Time 9:30A.M. Went Through Gay Paree! August 30th 1944. Better known as Paris! Ha! Whee! What a time we boys had Cognac! - Wine and Beautiful Women! Ha! Went through Luxemburg September the 10th 1944. Luxemburg is right on the border line of Germany. Fired our first round into Germany Sep. 13. 1944 Time - 5:15 P.M. We are exactly 3 miles away from German soil." For a couple months Pasternak's company is not in battle. He does not specify why. On the fourth page of the diary Pasternak finally enters battle: "November the 2nd 1944. Finally have entered Germany Boy! What a reception those Jerry's gave us. Dog fights and what not. Whee!"; "Nov. 30. 1944. Well here we are in Hurtgen Germany. Believe me it's plenty hot over here we happen to be The Front Line Artillery and the Jerry's are sure throwing plenty of artillery at us. Boy's out here in fact it's to close for comfort. Ha!"; "Dec. 2. 1944. Well! Here we are still in the Hurtgen Forest saw one of our P47's shot down today. The pilot bailed out in enemy territory." Pasternak keeps an intriguing attitude to the war he is fighting in possibly a way to deal with horror of it all. If the death and destruction around him is affecting him he does not put it in writing. "Dec. 3. 1944. I and two other fellows helped bury a dead Jerry about 20 Jerry planes came over today and really strafed our positions. Our Ack Ack Boy's got 7 of the Jerry planes. These Jerry planes have been strafeing us for at least 30 minutes if not more. There sure are plenty of Dead Jerry's here in this Hurtgen Forest also a few dead American." He also mentions shooting down two British planes by accident. The dog fights in the sky are of particular interest to Pasternak: "Dec. 18. 1944. Boy! Talk about planes flying around here today. Whee! All kinds American P47's P51's P38's British Spitfires Hurricane's and Typhoon's. Sure have seen some good dog fights out here today.One of those Jerry plane's went down in Flame's." On December 23 after 23 days of "some good fighting" Pasternak leaves back to Belgium. "Dec. 25. 1944. Christmas Day back in Belgium once again! Went to church today the mass was in French also had plenty of turkey for Christmas also have seen a lot of good dog fights out here." This part of his diary covers 11 pages each numbered at the top. There are a few additional pages with handwritten entries of money owed him from card games etc. Anthony Pasternak has written his name and address on the first page "Tony Pasternak 2313 Medill Ave. Chicago Illinois". There is the address of Joe Pasternak c/o M-G-M Studio's Culver City California who was a big producer of movies in Hollywood at that time and who quite possibly may have been a relative of Tony. This diary is somewhat delicate. A number of the pages from the address section are loose but still present. The handwriting is in all capitals and exceedingly easy to comprehend.; Manuscript; 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF ANTHONY PASTERNAK BATTLE OF HURTGEN FOREST WESTERN FRONT OF WORLD WAR TWO AMERICAN INVASION OF EUROPE LONGEST BATTLE IN U.S. HISTORY 387TH ANTI-AIRCRAFT ARTILLERY BATTALION 47TH ARMORED FIELD ARTILLERY BATTALION U.S. FIRST ARMY OPERATION QUEEN US SOLDIERS IN WORLD WAR II EUROPEAN THEATER SCHLACHT IM HÜRTGENWALD OMAR BRADLEY COURTNEY HODGES WALTER MODEL AMERICANA HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL AMERICANA ANTIQUITÉ CONTRAT VÉLIN DOCUMENT MANUSCRIT PAPIER ANTIKE BRIEF PERGAMENT DOKUMENT MANUSKRIPT PAPIER OGGETTO D'ANTIQUARIATO ATTO VELINA DOCUMENTO MANOSCRITTO CARTA ANTIGÜEDAD HECHO VITELA DOCUMENTO MANUSCRITO PAPEL . unknown‎

‎1940s ORIGINAL GROUP OF DIARIES 2 AND EPHEMERA RELATING TO A NAVY SERVICEMAN SERVING IN THE PACIFIC THEATER REPAIRING SHIPS‎

‎UNITED STATES ASIATIC-PACIFIC THEATER. Good. 1943. On offer is a collection of WWII period American military ephemeral. The collection consists of a 1945 diary kept by a naval rating a diary kept by either a marine or army soldier likely ANTHONY V DI BARTOLO as noted in one book a Riot Control handbook 2 large-size black and white photographs a printed handbook about the U.S. Naval Training Center a copy of a U.S. Army Field Order a second 1945 diary a 1949 diary an address book a tax return form and an appointment form to the United States Civilian Conservation Corps. The various documents are in good condition. They are not the property of one person but rather are items for the WWII and early post-war era. The 1945 navy sailor's diary contains 52 pages in a week-at-a-glance format plus some memoranda pages. It is approximately 20% complete. The author is unidentified. From an entry in March we know that he is married and has a baby. From context it appears that he is working at a U.S. Navy dry dock /repair base in the Pacific theatre. His first full entry states ". Working on USS Pringle. She took a suicide dive in Leyte Gulf." Jan 6. This reference is to the successful kamikaze attack on Pringle on Dec 30th inflicting serious casualties and damage. He makes references to alarms and GQ General Quarters: ". Rumours of a mast job knocked off by a 'Betty". Plenty of work" Jan 9. A "Betty" was the nickname for a Japanese Mitsubishi G4M long-range bomber. "Turn To Underway GQ Passed islands off New Guinea Fixed all guns and worked on ships motors ." Feb 19; "Passed convoy of LST's that left Manus Saturday morning ." Feb 21. He mentions several ships he worked on including USS Borie USS Haynsworth USS Randolph and USS Leutze. The second diary is more of a journal. Its owner was Anthony V Di Bartolo of Lawrence MA. Casual research has not turned up any additional biographical detail. The diary has 365 pages plus memoranda and is about 10% complete. Its printed year is 1943 but that has been struck out and 1947 substituted. It is tempting to suggest that entries date from 1943 but U.S. forces did not invade Guam which is mentioned in the book until 1944. The book was used as a notebook/journal. It contains comments drawings and reference notes that clearly indicate that he was a private soldier most likely in the U.S. Marine Corps. "We started off this morning 0730 with light marching packs helmets and rifles we were learning scouting on the march we went 5 miles into the jungle mud and clay up over our leggings we was guarding the body of troops from the right flank. ." Jan 21. He mentions a base on Guam: ". I hitchhiked up to Agana that is the capital of Guam ." Jan 24. Other pages contain lists and checklists. There are hand drawings of grenades and mortar shells and diagrams of various types of marching configurations. He has a detailed drawing of a ruck sack and the location of each piece of kit that it contains. The field order is a 1 page 8 inch by 14 inch typed movement order dated Feb 13th 1943 signed by a Captain Odell. This movement order relates to a training exercise on the Massachusetts Military Reserve confirmed by specific geographic references in the order: "180 th F.A dismounted less detachments will prevent penetration of enemy reconnaissance patrols SOUTH of line: RR BRIDGE - BOURNE BRIDGE - GREAT POND - WOOD ROAD - ROUTE 130". The order goes on to detail the movements and responsibilities or individual units. The United States Civilian Conservation Corps certificate details the appointment of John Sullivan as an Assistant Leader. The commission is signed by FGE Carlson USNR Commanding Officer of the 1153rd Company. The Civilian Conservation Corps was one of the most successful New Deal programs of the Great Depression. It existed for fewer than 10 years but left a legacy of roads bridges and buildings throughout the United States. Between 1933 and 1941 more than 3000000 men served in the CCC. The two black and white photographs measure about 9.35 inches by 8 inches landscape. They are not annotated. The depict aerial views of what appear to be two islands. The Riot Control Handbook is an army training manual detailing riot control methods: "This manual presents the problems of riot control from the viewpoint of the platoon company or battalion that suddenly finds itself pitted against a mob" p vii. It deals with theory equipment manoeuvres training and examples. It is an excellent example of the type of training that a military organization would develop. The printed handbook about the U.S. Naval Training Center is interesting in that although it it's a glossy printed volume 5.5 inches by 4 inches its cover is actually a mailing cover. Marked with the insignia of the U.S. Naval Training Center Sampson NY it was mailed by Joseph Ciampo to Mrs Joseph Ciampo in Winthrop MA. Casual research has not found any additional biographical information on Joseph Ciampo. It contains 32 pages of text and black & white photographs It is an explanation of the training and routines of the U.S. Navy and the Training Center. Interestingly it is written in the 1st person and appears designed specifically for family members of recruits. There is a SEPARATION CENTER brochure from the U.S. War Department Personnel Center at Fort Devens MA giving information to members leaving the U.S. military at that base. The second 1945 diary the 1949 diary and the address book are all blank the US income tax return is blank. There is also a catalogue from a military surplus/supply firm that is dated 1984. The remaining documents are a Blue Cross brochure and an unidentified page listing locations apparently in Europe some flight times and some codes. Altogether this is an interesting collection of ephemera. It gives historians and researchers a fascinating look into some of the day to day experiences of an ordinary sailor and soldier in wartime. The U.S. Naval Training Center Handbook gives a very clear description of the expectations and experiences of a U.S. naval recruit. The Riot Control manual outlines in detail what the role of the military would be in helping maintain order in a civil dispute up to and including the use of deadly force.; Manuscript; 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF MID-20TH CENTURY ANTHONY V DI BARTOLO 1940s POST WW2 ERA SECOND WORLD WAR UNITED STATES NEW ENGLAND MASSACHUSETTS U.S. ARMY U.S. NAVY IN WW2; THE PACIFIC CAMPAIGN; ASIATIC-PACIFIC THEATER USS PRINGLE; USS BORIE; USS HAYNSWORTH; USS RANDOLPH; USS LEUTZE; BATTLE OF LEYTE GULF; BATTLE OF GUAM; ITALIAN AMERICANS IN WW2 MILITARY EPHEMERA WW2 EPHEMERA U.S. NAVAL TRAINING CENTER RIOT CONTROL HANDBOOK CIVILIAN CONSERVATION CORPS EARLY POST-WAR ERA PACIFIC THEATER NAVY SAILOR'S DIARY U.S. MARINE CORPS AMERICAN MILITARY HISTORY ANTHONY DI BARTOLO JOSEPH CIAMPO U.S NAVY SHIP DAMAGE DURING WW2 SHIP REPAIR FACILITIES IN THE PACIFIC THEATER PAPUA NEW GUINEA NEW GEORGIA SOUND; THE SLOT NAVAL HISTORY MARITIME HISTORY AMERICANA HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS DIARY DIARIES JOURNALS PERSONAL HISTORY SOCIAL HISTORY HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL ANTIQUITÉ CONTRAT VÉLIN DOCUMENT MANUSCRIT PAPIER ANTIKE BRIEF PERGAMENT DOKUMENT MANUSKRIPT PAPIER OGGETTO D'ANTIQUARIATO ATTO VELINA DOCUMENTO MANOSCRITTO CARTA ANTIGÜEDAD HECHO VITELA DOCUMENTO MANUSCRITO PAPEL . unknown‎
