Lindquist is there and it is his 20th birthday. He is one of five remaining members of the original 180 who landed together in France. ABOUT THE AUTHOR For Karl Lindquist growing up on Nantucket was heaven - going to war was hell - teaching college physics at a New England state college was a rewarding reality.
