PERSONAL TRIBUTE
Jerry Shore was one of my BEST REDLEG Friends. It was my privilege to serve with Jerry while a member of the 1st Battalion 113th Field Artillery. Jerry was the Operations Sergeant during my last tour with the Battalion. As the OPS SGT, Jerry had no peer. Every operation in the field was planned in an outstanding manner. Sometimes we did not execute as good as the plan, but it was not his fault.
We both loved Fort Sill, Oklahoma (The Home of the US ARMY FIELD ARTILLERY). It was always a learning experience to be with him in Saint Barbara Land. In addition, we always enjoyed the Red Leg Hospitality.
When I departed the Battalion on 20 March 1983 at Fort Bragg, Jerry planned a final operation for me:
Operation: BLAZE OF GLORY. This was one of the finest things anyone (with he being the planner) ever did for me.
A pass-by of a 155MM Field Artillery Battalion is a wonderful sight. Jerry had a wonderful career after the Field Artillery but I doubt he ever worked so hard and had so much fun!!
The North Carolina National Guard Association was an organization that Jerry and I were very active in and enjoyed the best of fellowship with our fellow Guardsmen in North Carolina. It was held at various venues in the State. Jerry again did something very nice for me. He and others decided we needed a Hospitality Room and it was named Rock City. We had Rock City for 4 conventions but we enjoyed every convention we ever attended. In fact, the first one I attended in Asheville, Jerry was there. Jerry always worked hard and played hard.
On a personal note: Several of us spent many 4th of July Outings together. Now that was fun!
I know Jerry found the road to: Fiddler's Green-Artillerymen Only. He is missed!
