Sgt Buggs Part Three

Dear Justyn,

After searching several newspapers, I came across an article in the The Hammond Times newspaper from Hammond, Indiana.

The article speaks of a 34 year old arrested at a Hospital. His age fits a 1922 birth year, so it’s interesting to speculate that this was indeed him.

As a post scriptum

Perhaps after the war, he like many other enlisted men were affected with post traumatic stress disorder. John Huston was commissioned by the US government after World War Two to make a public service announcement film in 1946 called “Let There Be Light”, showing that veterans with “psychological disorders” were in good hands thanks to the Army.

Hi Erik
That article is amazing, if it is the right Buggs that will be a hell of a story to tell my grandchildren.
I will let you know if I find any more info.
