In two hours I was at Fort Dix. In thirty minutes, to my total surprise, I was on one of dozens of telephones provided for POWs, talking to my parents. I learned that my brothert just returned from sweeping mines off the southern coast of France, was in Los Angeles waiting word from me. I wired him a prearranged message that would bring us both to Chicago:
Home is the hunter,
home from the hills,
And the sailor,
home from the sea.

So ends A Shower of Frogs by William Jasper Stigall, Jr., my father. I think it's a good read and a unique insight into World War II.
I'd like to make the book more widely available -- it was privately published and although available on Amazon.com, not widely accessible. I have about 200 copies that I will sell at the Amazon price (including shipping).
Feel free to contact me via this Blog, or at Frogs96822@gmail.com
