Sergeant Glen Douglas<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Sergeant Glen Douglas, a Lakes-Okanogan Indian, was born near Penticton, B.C., on Feb. 1, 1927.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He volunteered for and fought in 3 separate wars! He served from 1944-1966.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He, apparently, reported to Fort Lewis, Wash., in May 1944.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His unit, part of B Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 1st Battalion, had caught up with the 101st Airborne Division after it crossed the Meuse River in Belgium in 1945.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Douglas distinguished himself in battle in the Korean War. He landed in <\/a>Pusan in time to relieve the badly battered 24th Infantry at the Naktong River line. In the 2004 interviews, Douglas said he was injured by a grenade at the Chorwon Valley on July 17, 1953, near Outpost Tom of the famous forward positions Tom, Dick and Harry. He was awarded the Silver Star for gallantry in action while serving with Headquarters Company, 9th Infantry Regiment, 2d Infantry Division, in action on 17 March 1951 in the vicinity of Chigu-ri, Korea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His first tour of duty in Vietnam was from June 1959 to the end of May 1960 as an intelligence analyst with a Special Forces team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He died in 2011.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
