**************

On 7 July 1997, I received an email from Joe Galloway re his writing of the Prologue. In part, it said

"i will tell you that i wrote that prologue last, after everything else was done. it took approx four hours, including three breaks during which i walked around my yard at 3 and 4 and 5 a.m. weeping aloud at the images which kept flashing thru my head. i may live to be 100 and write a dozen more books, but i know in my heart that i will never write any wordsbetter or more true than those in that prologue.

thank you.

And I and my students thank Joe Galloway and General Moore for the prologue and for sharing. (JKS)
