Bleecker Bob’s Records, In The 70s.

AN AMERICAN HERO

Today, we honor Richard “Dick” Sturm. Mr. Sturm was a WWII Airborne Veteran, residing in Atlanta, GA, who passed away on October 18, 2018. He trained as a paratrooper, attaining the rank of sergeant, and served in the 82nd and 101st Airborne Division in Belgium and Germany including the Battle of the Bulge. During his illness, his daughter, Cindy, asked him if he always slept in his socks. He replied that after serving in the Battle of the Bulge in the snow and ice, he swore he would never have cold feet again. Among the numerous recognitions for his service during World War II, Dick received the WWII Victory Medal, Good Conduct Medal, EAMET Combat Infantry Badge, Presidential Unit Citation with cluster, and the French Croix de Guerre. He was a member of General Dwight D. Eisenhower’s Honor Guard in Munich Germany. Mr. Sturm was the last surviving WWII veteran of the North Georgia Airborne Association and a member of the World War II Roundtable (an Atlanta are based group). We salute you and thank you for your service!
