<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:#1C1C1C">This installment of the series, hosted at the First United Methodist Church (275 W. Michigan Avenue), features Bill Rappley. He was an Infantryman in the 9th Infantry Division and started fighting
in the Harz Mountains in 1945. He was also at the meeting with the Russians at the Elbe River. He witnessed the transfer of two German soldiers to the Russians who immediately shot the Germans and felt that the American officer who turned the Germans over
to the Russians should have been court-martialed. <b><i> Rappley will be present at the program to answer any questions about his experience.<o:p></o:p></i></b></span></p>
