Finding Fulkerson
To the Editor:
On Jan. 22, 2003 you published my "Letter to the Editor" concerning the airman S/Sgt. William H. Fulkerson, who had died in action over Germany on Nov. 26, 1944.
Thanks to your publication I came in contact with June Rasmussen, whose mother, Edna Marie Fulkerson Mason, is the sister of William. Edna Marie (now 88) still lives in Marion.
June Rasmussen sent me an excellent biography of her uncle William "Bill" Fulkerson. Not only describing him, but also the other members of the Fulkerson family. For me it represents a typical American family saga.
I have pleasure in sending you herewith a copy of this bio. Perhaps you can use it as a kind of follow-up to my "Letter to the Editor."
