Book: Back Down The Ridge,

Comments: For those of you that are trying to piece together some of your loved one's past - what the war was like for them - I highly recommend this book. My husband's friend, Medic, Freddie Wolf, served in the Korean War yielding him 100% disabled, and was declared as one of the most severely wounded soldiers to have lived. He died on Veteran's Day 2006. In his memory, our Pastor gave us a book that included an interview of our war hero and others: "BACK DOWN THE RIDGE," by W. L. White. Readers' Digest also has an article: "Back Down To The Ridge," February, 1953. Your loved one did not lay down their life in vain! When comes Eternity, you will be together again! "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." - Gospel: John 15:13
