Well Paul that is a tough one.

George Koskimaki knows more than anyone because he has been doing it since WW2.

Mark Bando is his Number 1 Acolyte and his knowledge is comparable to George's on the 101st.

When it comes to Easy CO, no one has specialized in it more than Jake Powers aka APO472. He has interviewed and knows more Easy vets than anyone.

Its a tough one but for an Easy Co project I would go with Jake.

Just a feeling I have, but considering that the publishers have asked BoB actors before it wouldn't surprise me if Dale Dye showed up in this one.

Tony,

Very good points, and yes Jake is the E/506th man, but I would have thought with the Genesis book being his "baby" he would not be be involved with Marcus's work. George Koskimaki is indeed another good call.

Hmmm, you've got me thinking. Maybe all three could contribute? One does an introduction, one writes a forward and one an afterword.

I like that idea. No hurt feelings all around the board. The true sign of a diplomat, Paul ! The ability to involve and include everyone!!!!
