Interesting Incident
Reporting on his trip • Chap-
lain Goldberg says, "One of the
most moving experiences - during,
my trip overseas was an incident
at a cemetery. The Army offi-
cer in charge invited us to look
at the old cemetery where Amer-
ican lads of the first World War
were buried. The crosses there
were cast in cement. On some
of them I noticed strange inscrip-
tions: 'Here in honor lies an
' American soldier, known but to
1 God.' An unknown soldier!
Then my eye caught the sight
of a Star cif David with the same
inscription. 'Strange,' said I to
myself, 'how could • he be un-
known if they knew that he was
a Jew?'
"The officer noticed the ex-
pression in my eyes and came
forth with the explanation. 'We
do not know whether he was a
Jew, Catholic or Protestant. He
is unknown. That Star of David
was put on this grave as a tri-
,bute to the men of the Jewish
faith who fought - at the side of
their fellow Americans for demo-
cracy and freedom'."
