Re: Some memories of Noroton Heights
As a radioman, I was at Noroton Heights in the early spring of 1943. I remember Joe Hartney, then a signalman second, who received a Purple Heart at a ceremony carried out while I was there. It was impressive, especially for a boy of scarcely 17 years. Hartney was a capable instructor and one of those signalmen who waved semaphore flags with what could only be called artistry.
