Jack served in France. He fought with and along side of Audey Murphy. He was in the original Screen Play of "Oklahoma?. Jack (Jacques) A. Hernandez. Jack was in Audey's squad and got into a few verbal fights with him. Jack joined the army after the Navy rejected him because he could not speak English. Jack came into the U.S. from Mexico; he wanted to ?get those Japanese for bombing Pearl Harbor and killing Americans?. The Army sent Jack to France so he fought Germans instead. Jack is a Purple Heart recipient, 86 years young and loves the Lord that spared his life.

My dad was a brave young man during WWII as were so many others. He served in C.B.I. and as there is no mention of Asia in the categories I chose Europe. I love my dad and am eternally grateful for his sacrifice.
