Before leaving for Africa, he
was stationed in Ireland, after
serving at Fort Custer and Fort
Knox, Ky.
Corporal Bernstein met his
death in a tank which he com-
manded. He recently wrote his
family that he had received . hon
orary diplomas as a tank tech-
nician, and because of his train-
ing, was asked to remain and
teach. He often related of his
pride in the Army, and his eager-
ness to fight, and when his regi-
ment left he refused to stay on,
and left with them.
Other letters from him in North
Africa told of little resistence by
the French, and of their happi-
ness over seeing American sold-
iers.
Corporal Bernstein is survived
by his parents and three sisters,
Sue, Rose and Mary, who, be-
sides expressing their pride in
their brother, also praise their
father, who was a soldier in the
Russo-Sino war, for keeping up
the spirit of the family.
