D-Day paratrooper, 87, saluted at Fort Hood

SGT Bearden was a mortar squad leader in H Company and also wrote a book, To D-Day And Back: Adventures With The 507th Parachute Infantry Regiment And Life As A WW2 POW.

Clarence Hughart (whose pic is also at the above link), much like Don Lassen was with the Static Line before he died, has been the 'heart and soul' of the 507th PIR Assn - Clarence was also in H Company.

And so it goes...
