Glenn Heath, KY 1942

Glenn Heath in his new US army gear in Kentucky in 1942, prior to leaving for maneuvers in South Carolina and Arizona, and finally to Europe to help defeat the Nazis. He wanted to be a conscientious objector, but this was not allowed. Instead, the Army let him become a medic, so that in fact he was saving lives rather than shooting at people. He helped liberate the Nazi concentration camps as the Allies moved along the Western Front into eastern France and Germany.

(Young Love Faces World War II) Valera Williams and Glenn Heath sit on the side porch of the Williams' Sunny Hill Farm in Allen County, KY, before Glenn was shipped off on the Queen Mary to England from which he then went on to France, Austria, and Germany with the US military as a member of the medical corps. This was before their marriage, so was probably taken around 1942.

Alan & Glenn Heath, TN c1950
Alan & Glenn Heath, TN c1950: I (Alan Heath) had just risen from a nap, so am a bit bleary-eyed. Daddy (Glenn Heath) had been working in the garden. We were living in a 'cabin' at the time that had once been part of a 1930s motor lodge, then owned by Wayne and Arva Anderson, my aunt on mama's side (The Meadors of Adolphus). Daddy was a young teacher at Westmoreland High School at the time, fresh out of Western Kentucky State College as it was then, paid for by the generous GI bill.
