Courtney Myers Kincaid

  • I'm a proud granddaughter of Dudley Bob Myers of the 4th Armored Division, Tank Driver. He was in the 704th Tank Destroyer Battalion - B Company and discharged as Technical Sergeant. He rarely spoke about his time in WW2, but he did talk to me and my husband about it. I remember him telling one story when Patton asked him "Soldier, what's the hold up?" and asked how he was making it. The Germans mined the road ahead - I think they called it dragon's teeth (?). And another story when bullets were flying by him and he ran "like a jackrabbit." He was a great man...I still miss him every day. ~Courtney Myers Kincaid
