The 10th Armored Division was activated at fort benning, georgia on the 15th of july in 1942. From the beginning it was known as a hot outfit. Its nickname, tiger division. The commanding general of the 10th, Major General paul w garden was a superb leader. Carryout orders, march, maneuver and shoot where his by words. No journal was more revered by his men. Devereaux, adrew Company Commander in the 10th Armored Division in world war ii. Spirit in ourlous division. I think it was due to the training we got from the general art Division Commander in the states. He was killed in an airplane crash before we went overseas. He had a couple of very pet things that he liked. One that we had to wear the top button of our coveralls buttoned. This was uncomfortable but we got so that we looked at other outfits that were them unbuttoned and thought they look liked sloths. When you gave a salute in the 10th Armored Division, a tiger salute, you lifted your chin in the air like that. That seemed to silly until after a while we got used to it. Then we thought were the only outfit in the whole army that thought we knew how to salute property. Into light, 1944, a new leader in july, 19 44, a new leader assumes command. I am Lieutenant General william hh morris junior. I was commanding general of the 10th Armored Division in europe during world war ii. The division sailed from new the on september 14, 1944. Long pier to training was over. The men were prepared for ofthing the long period training was over. The men were prepared for anything. But their imagination could not conjure with destiny held in store for them. Hepler with his most trusted generals made most trusted made a momentous decision which would alter the course of the war. Offensive, as campaign in which the tigers of the tent would cover themselves with glory and make military history the 10th. The division arrived in battle torn cherbourg on september 22 to a groupigned under the control of george ash pattons third army. Generalal patton George S Pattons third army. General patton came to visit as he did with all the divisions assigned to his army. He covered effectively the combat Lessons Learned during squad, section, and platoon level. I am colonel thomas tamerlan. During world war ii i commanded the 11th tank battalion of the 10th Armored Division. Vividly the first days of combat, the first orders we received. Roberts called us into a small church are yard in a french town. His first words were that the reason he called us into this particular churchyard in this particular town, were that this was the place that he had received his first orders go into combat, during world war i, and he wanted to use this particular spot to start us off. Pastved up all afternoon, verdannes, on a beautiful halloween night we infiltrated our half tracks one by 1, 3 minutes apart, down a very spooky road through a village and up into a wooded upa, dismounted and trucked and relieved that 90th division. I was a Battalion Commander, a major in the 10th Armored Division one or two in world war ii. The 10th armored was a welltrained division. Metfirst combat was against z. That was a defensive sector as far as the 10th was concerned. We were supposed to aggressively patrol and we did. Instrument andry every weapon was fired at least in more or less anger. Gainst the enemy [guns firing] was combat command commander of ccb 10th Armored Division in world war ii. I was a Battalion Commander in the 10th Armored Division. My First Encounter with enemy fire was during the defensive Operation West of metz. It was here we learned to sense artillery fire, that is determine the difference between outgoing which was friendly fire, [blasting] an incoming, which was german fire. If you could determine with some degree of accuracy where the enemy rounds were going to land, this would save wear and tear on your knees and elbows and he would try to take cover every time the rounds would come over. I am colonel james ohara. I commanded the 54th armored Infantry Battalion in the 10th Armored Division. I considered this initial baptism of fire in the defensive position was very good for the battalion. It give us time to gather our practice some of the things we had been learning in the states, get arc medications ouring get communications working, having reconnaissance work with the free french, practice patrolling , all the things it is so necessary for battalion to do. Ive never my first in combat. We felt very safe in a tank. After ihis first day seen the first tank hit by 88 and burned, we began to get scared. But even though we were awful scared, it did not seem to be much for handicap of doing our job which was to destroy the enemy and we did a fairly good job that first day. My name is john winter. I was a tank platoon sergeant, 10th Armored Division during world war ii. After fighting for around three weeks around metz, we moved north to participate in the third army offensive. Esigned to capture metz the plan had two phases. To destroy the enemy in metz. And to catch him as he tried to pull out of metz. The mission of the 10th was to make a deep and attrition into the enemys lines. Once it crashed through the german defense, the left column, combat command be was to events east and sees a bridgehead over the czar river. The right column, combat command egg, was to take the division ofective, the center arterial highway and Railroad Traffic running northeast of metz. The enemy blocks the way and fought savagely. [explosions] but the tigers clawed their way through the german defense. [guns] by the first major offensive mission, they had taken six d4 towns repulsed 11 counterattacks 64 towns, repulsed 11,000 11 counterattacks, captured prisoners and destroyed rate quantities of materiel. But the price was high. Destroyed great quantities hiler approved the final operation now renamed watch on the rhine. The plan of attack was to break through on the ardennes with three armies. The sixth panzer army led by the butcher from bavaria. Army, led by ar barren a baron. And the seventh army led by general brandenburger. They would cross the river on the second day between liege and brussels ands reached the great port of antwerp on the second day. This was to destroyed more than 30 american and british divisions and they believed it would be the beginning of the end for the allies. Within the next week, thousands upon thousands of troops and thousands upon thousands of tons were transported secretly from Assembly Areas to terminals just behind the front lines. Troops]g on the eve of december 15, one quarter of a million germans stood poised on the line of departure, prepared to annihilate the enemy. Music]ic at 5 30 a. M. , the following morning, [bombs] planes erected along an 85 mile front. The great drive to antwerp had begun. Flames erupted along an 85 mile front. [artillery fire] on december 16, 1944 about six clock p. M. , i received a telephone call from general who informed me there was going to be that i was meant to be transferred with the division to the first army and replaced under the eighth call, that they had been attacked by the germans in the vicinity of luxembourg. I made dispatched my chief of staff to the headquarters of the eighth core for orders. The chief of staff returned about two clock a. M. The next morning and informed me that the division was to go into a quartering area, just west of luxembourg. When the battle of the bulge began, i unit was in a rest area south of luxembourg. We received orders to be prepared to move north on 24 hours notice. A short time later, the alert was changed to 12 hours. A short time later, we were on the road. Divisionth armored sent two of its comeback luxembourgrthwest of to go into action there. They sent my combat command west one town and then north to another. And ciative my outfit ive appreciated i appreciate my outfit and got in around 4 00 p. M. The general asked how my outfit fought and have any pieces my outfit would fight in and i told him three and he said all right. Commonersix or seven north, one east and one southeast. A little sidelight here. I had held up the march of our front,to get ohara in because ohara had not been in the fighting heavily down around mertzig area. So we got ohara and friends. I took my team down and we stopped for the night opposite the town of warden. On our way down this road, we passed Many American soldiers coming to the rear, most of whom seemed to be from the 28th division. They had been hit hard further forward. When he got to her destination for the night, since we received our orders at 5 00 in the afternoon and there was not much daylight left, we settled astride the road and blocked the road. Ton asrived in bas night was falling. I found an mp who led me to colonel roberts cp. It was a brief meeting and he told me that ohara had been sent east of the town and was in the defensive position and the chariot was moving slightly northeast of the town. And as soon as my column arrived i was to keep moving to the and if theretown, were any germans there i was to knock them out and to occupy the town. If there were no germans, i was to occupy the town going north for the north because this be the limit of the range of the 10th Armored Division artillery, which was located in the vicinity of baston. This was the disposition of combat command be on the 18th of december, the night of their arrival in baston. Team was north, one team at wardin. Ohara the total strength of the defending units was 75 tanks and 2800 officers and men. Bastoing at the gates of gne with events elements of the panzer army and general brandenburger seventh army. Approximately 300 tanks and 50,000 men Whose Mission in addition to taking the towns was to take bastogne and to take a fast. [speaking german] it was very important to it wasbastogne fast. The most important road junction in the Southern Area of the combat section. Reserveeisenhowers forces which weises expected were near arrived to attack and they would have to pass bastogne. German]g former general of the panzer troops and commander in truth commanderinchief. We completed as tableting the defenses about midnight. Defense was a routine traditional type defense. We set out roadblocks to the east, one to the north, and one to the northwest, because these were the directions that we expected the germans to attack us. The fighting throughout the night was sporadic. It was a piecemeal attack. They would has with small units from the north and then they would hit us with small units from the east. [shooting] blasts] terry who is not here one out to one town and came back at midnight and found me asleep. Allowed toat he be east because out he had found a combat command, ccr, on the ninth Armored Division in position, 10 or 12 tanks, a colonel and some artillery. I gave him permission to stay where he was. He never got back to his command. Thehe meantime, some of Panzer Division had cut in and he nevertfit joined. Inever his headquarters when to a little chateau. Two and aad a tank or few machine guns and his whole headquarters company. Dayut up a real nice faisal a real nice fight all day. That evening he had to retire. He felt like he had to get out. He lined up his vehicles to go out. He was to go out last in a jeep. He went outside and got to tommy guns. He emptied one tommy gun to the right. Got the other one to the left, climbed in his jeep and pulled out. The driver was hit, the jeep was hit, the medic in the back was hit. He got out. He got a dsc for this. My battalion spent the night on the high ground to the south. All night long we saw no german troops or heard nothing of them. However we did have one straggler come to the rear who told us they were east of us in the area. By 10 00 in the morning, they and shot out road the artillery observers tank and one or two other tanks. We fought all morning long and part of the afternoon, staying in the same position there, keeping the germans at bay. [shooting] at first the defense of bastogne rested with three units of the division in the northeast east and in the southeast. General anthony mcauliffe, United States army retired. I was at bastogne with the one hunter first Airborne Division. The december, 1944 101st Airborne Division was at a camp in france. We were recuperating from the holland airborne operation where we had suffered 30 casualties. And we were absorbing our replacements and going through a training program. General taylor had been recalled to washington and i was the acting commander of the division. I believe it was december 18 we received a telephone call from the chief of staff of the 18th airborne, saying the division should be prepared to move the following day to the north. We had known the germans had attacked but we did not know the extent of the attack or the conditions to the north. But we made all preparations to get away the following day and the first thing in the morning, i preceded the division to the with my aid ton camp and by operations officer. As i drove north, i reached across road a couple of miles west of the town of bastogne. I knew that i headquarters was located in that town so i decided to drive over to the headquarters and try to learn more about the situation. It was fortunate that i did so, because i learned from the commander, general middleton, that the orders for that one had her first airborne had been changed. 101st Airborne Division had been changed and that they would come to bastogne. Oflso met the commander combat command be of the 10th Armored Division who were already on the scene and in the fighting. It was attacked five or six day he willfirst describe. During the morning of the first day, when battalion under commander to the hundred first airborne joined him. As soon as the colonel joined, they decided to attack, apparently at the same time the germans decided to attack. Paratroopers and our tanks and our armored tree our armored infantry launched the attack. 1400 hours, the German Forces launched an all out attack. So we had the situation of the germans and the american units attacking one another simultaneously from points about 700 yards distant. Fire]ne gun actually the germans were stopped. They withdrew behind the britt the ridge. Are paratroopers on the northwest of the town gained the ridge. The tanks, the armored infantry on the northeast of the town were unable to get to their positions. So after a fight of about 45 minutes or an hour, we withdrew the paratroopers from the northeast back into the town. One officer is hit badly and a colonel was killed. For 24 hours. Know he was later captured when the hospital is captured. It out with ad pneumatically superior enemy. December,d of [explosions] when the besieged city was finally encircled, the commanding general of the 47th panzer corps sent the following surrender ultimatum. Surrender of the the bastogne garrison. If the americans did not comply within two hours, bastogne would be complete they destroyed and its defenders annihilated. General mcculloughs oneword nuts. reverberated around the world. This is lorne greene. In world war ii, 61 United StatesArmy Divisions were locked in mortal combat with the enemy. The european theater of operations. This film is about one of those divisions. The 10th armored. Its nickname was the tiger division. On the 16th of december, 1944, hiler began his great drive to the port of antwerp, they are dens offensive ardennes offensive. Six days later, on the 22nd of december, strong German Forces surrounded the outnumbered and outgunned american defenders of communicationey center. As a result of this encirclement, the commanding general of the german 47th panzer corps delivered the surrender ultimatum to general anthony mcauliffe, commander of the bastogne garrison. The reply was nuts. Bad weather prevented aerial resupply. There was a shortage of Surgical Equipment and not enough blankets for the men suffering from wounds and shock. Ammunition was running low and some of the artillery batteries were down to less than 10 rounds per gun. But the morning of december 23 broke clear and cold and visibility was unlimited. From england bastogne to the foxholes of Bastogne Bastogne where everyman man looked up to this guide and looked up to the sky and prayed. And their prayers were answered. Flying]es im a retired berg dear general and i was combat commander of ccb 10th Armored Division inward were to world war ii. The 19th tactical furnished us every halfhour a squadron of planes circled us. At the same time, by some luck, a captain staggered in two bastogne. How he got there i do not know but he was an expert on operating with the air from the ground. We had a fine vhf sat and work with the air. We set the thing up in the middle of the compound and he used the air as follows. Napalmplanes carried bombs, ordinary bombs, rockets and what he called bullets. He says i pulled the napalm bombs first and bombs next. I pulled to the rockets next then i give them bullets. Theyefore i let them go, would encircle once to give us new targets. This, thatmated that the air was equal to at least two divisions of help. See in they could snow which had newly fallen, where the tanks had gone and they were able to bomb all of these little woods. They weree they found moving right toward the fourth Armored Division which was battling to get into us. And i think the air, the next air squadron destroyed the whole group. Am general anthony mcauliffe, United States army retired. The 101stastogne with inne division 1944 in and. One of the saddest most dramatic incidents occurred Christmas Eve night. We asked for volunteers when we lost our hospital. And a very fine trained nurse, the daughter of the Village Hardware store keeper, renee le she tooklunteered. Charge of the wounded from the 10th Armored Division on the streets of bastogne. But on christmas a five hunter pound bomb struck the house, went all the way through and none of the 10th armored nor she soldiers survived. Not a one survived. Under sever 26, element of the fourth Murder Division crashed into bastogne. The encirclement was broken and for the germans it was the beginning of the end. After we had been in there, about 30 days, on the 16th of january we were relieved. In one of thene worst blizzards i have ever seen. The hill about 40 miles , a great big long hill with a gentle slope, the tanks just could not make it. Likewere sliding back bears on a slippery slide. Thinking it over, i have decided that if we had been in bastogne alone without any infantry, we could not have held 10 minutes. The one hunter first airborne airborne, without the steal my outfit afforded, could my outfitld steel afforded, could not have held. But they made a pretty tough combination. And as i seemed regrettable to me that combat command b of the 10th armored vision did not get the credit it deserved in the battle of bastogne. All of the newspaper and radio talk was about the paratroopers. Actually, the 10th Armored Division was in there a day before we were and had some very hard fighting for we ever got into it. Believe that we would never have been able to get into bastogne if it had not been for the defensive fighting of the three elements of the 10th Armored Division, who were first into bastogne and protected the town from invasion by the germans. February, 1945of. Was10th Armored Division rolling in high gear again. The mission this time was to triangle andl capture a city, an important and fortified area. This was the job general patton had started in november of 1944 but left unfinished because of the are dens counteroffensive ardennes counteroffensive. Im colonel james ohara. I commanded the 54th battalion of the 10th Armored Division. Our division was involved in action in the triangle on two different occasions. On the first occasion, i was not involved. On the second occasion it was after the battle of bastogne. There. Told to drive as i recall the 94th division, and entertain Infantry Division made their way through the line and we followed and got in with little incident. , ourwe got up to the River Division headquarters moved into the town and planned a River Crossing. Crossing, the general who commanded cca was put in command. He was given all three of the armored infantry italians as his testnds and told to armored different he did the armoredof Infantry Divisions as his commands. I think the River Crossing we was one of the things i would least like to do again. We did it at night. And it is always more difficult to do something at night and it is a lot more scary we carried these assault boats for what seemed like five miles through the woods when he came out of the woods, at the edge of the river, we had to go a lot of open fields and across fences. While we were going through their, it was pitch dark, of course. All of a sudden we walked into not only a minefield, but the whole place was boobytrapped. Just as the first mine or first boobytrapped went off, they began to let us have it with mortar and artillery fire. And people screaming men in. You did not know if you should put your foot down again in front of you for fear youre going to step on something or whether you should just stay right where you are. Or what to do. Oris about as scrape anything as i have ever been through. Thingis about as scary a as i have ever been through. We finally got to the river and crossed without too much trouble and it was a great feeling to get on the others on solid ground again. We got up to the top of the hill and down in the valley below. There we met again with the general. There is not too much action at this time. We saw many prisoners coming to the rear. Number ofhere were a pillboxes which had to be cleared out. Choiceeral gave us our of when to clear these pillboxes out. Some of them cleared them out in the daytime. In my case, i decided to clear these pillboxes at night. We had a lot of training back in the states on how to take a pillbox. So when it came our turn to do this, we were fairly well prepared for it. We crawled through about 1500 yards of open field, got down thenan antitank ditch, and the approved routine was that your bazooka man was to fire his bazooka at the observation slit of the pillbox while a couple of the others went around the back and threw grenades in. I turned to the bazooka man and said ok, now you fire at the observations lets and he said ok. And he turned around to the rocket man and said give me the rockets for the bazooka only to find that the rocket man was lying on his stomach about 15 how to yards way back where we had started. 1500 yards back where we started. There is nothing to do but take a couple of and ones and pop away at the slit while the platoon sergeant and myself went around to the back. It was rather like the movies. The platoon sergeant would open the door on the back door of the toolbox and i would take a grenade and throw it in and he would slam the door and we would both lean on it but make sure nobody got out. We did this pretty well all afternoon. I think by the end of the afternoon we had maybe one hunter 50 prisoners. One hunter 50 150 prisoners. The 10thgers of together with the 94th Infantry Division had overrun 84 square miles of german real estate and captured 23 towns, setting the stage for the subsequent capture of the area. The 10th army was then given the mission of taking the town of trier. We were sent on the road and told to capture it and we had to go another town. We got up near that town and found that the germans which we had knocked out from the area around the river, retreated just behind their and they were. Eroing in with heavy artillery i had gone past there in the morning and found that the town was boiling with artillery, i did not see how anybody could live there. I moved on up to a battalion that had lost its whole , some sick, some absent, when killed and my executive and i took over this battalion. It was raining, it was dark, they were shelling. At the same time, then all patton was raising cain with general walker, the corps commander, who was raising cain with general margin general morris, the Division Commander, who was raising cain with me to get into trier. All of the division was around there except my little force that was just being relieved. Colonel richardson, Lieutenant Colonel richardson was commanding. I heard here was to be relieved by the rangers in the afternoon. They were yelling over the radio , get into zert. I set the headquarters that evening with roberts. We use the whole map and decided we would play this is a map problem. We wanted to go around to the right we found out that it was dark and we did not have a guide and it was loaded with mines and we knew the big minefields of their and we are afraid to do directlyonly road was in. In but you cannot hold a hand in the afternoon on this were onause the germans the ridges on each side. So we could not figure on this road but all at once, it occurred to us that it was black and the germans could not see any bid on the road. So we decided we would send him down this road. Richardson not lose, came into the headquarters, we told him he was going in. He brought his young officers in. Brief them. Outfit, i he told one will take the bridge to the right and you take the bridge to the left. It happens that we knew these two bridges were still intact from airplane photographs that day. Story short,g richardson got into the town and then once his bridge blew up in front of his face. He had not heard a boom. For the other bridge so he rambled down in his tank to the other bridge. Found out that it had not blown. There was a little shooting from this end of the bridge. But it was sporadic and it was not organized. He organized a battalion or platoon, scented across the bridge. He had his tank and other stuff fire on the other end of the bridge and fortunately they got across. They captured the man, the officer who was supposed to blow it. To 11 otherthem officers who have told on him at that got away, they were in the back. O he got the whole group mina missed john winter and i was a tank platoon sergeant in world war ii. Onto that we shopped germany. Then we pulled back to we shipped on to germany. Then we pulled back to triere. We were given a mission on the opposite side of the mountain to try to take a bridge intact. We started out under the cover of darkness. As we approached in this valley, where the bridge was supposed to be, the germans were set with 88th and infantry awaiting for us. That is where i lost my tank. Immediatelyhit, it burnt and i bailed out of the top of it, dived out of the top. I was running into a large dairy barn for cover. On the 16th of march, the entire division was pushing toward the rhine. To get there, the tigers dealt with endless and maple box of alles, and worst 100,000 welltrained german troops. Fire]lery i was a battalion mander of the 61st infantry in the 10th Armored Division. Themember on the rhine destruction of a german supply column. With the aid of up air force who had bottled some german vehicles earlier in the day. We were able to destroy the german armies supply train. This was recognized as one of the greatest comments greatest concentrations of enemy equipping of the antiwar. General patton equipment of the entire war. General patton came down and said it was most fantastic destruction of an enemy column he had seen during the entire war. Tankers reached the rhine valley the tigers reach the rhine valley in a week capturing 8000 prisoners and sitka and cutting off the escape route for 50,000 germans. March, they crossed the rhine with a final cleanup that was to take them clear to the austrian and bavarian alps. Three days later, after heavy fighting, the Division Road through the Historic University city of heidelberg. But the tigers were getting tired. After six months of continuous fighting, the division was not 50 low strength and the men were showing the inevitable signs of wear and tear. This was a dangerous situation. The germans were deftly on the run, they still packed a murderous wallop. [artillery fire] on the third of april, 1945, the 10th Armored Division and battalion of the 100 Infantry Division received orders to seize a town and continue east. Im Lieutenant Colonel george hamel. During world war ii i was a Company Commander in between first tank battalion, 10th Armored Division. To division had been ordered seize a city, a Key Communications center. Riley,talion, task force had driven up to very gates of it, only to find that the bridges across the river were blown in our faces. The division was then ordered to attempt to cut off the town from the rear. Across the river north of the sweep. D make a wide they ran into very little opposition. We were ordered to follow the passthrough and continue on. Throughssfully passed and to the next large town and penetrated deeper into german territory, when we came to some blown bridges and were complete stop. By this time, the germans had reacted to this penetration into their rear. Rep. Defazio the german reaction was violent the german reaction. Was violence it was the greatest display of strength since the ardennes offensive. Supplies were running low for the americans in the city and it looked as though another bastogne might be in the making. But the air force. Came through again in the next two days, transports from the ninth care command brought the necessary gasoline, rations and ammunition to sustain the tigers. Despite their ability to beat off one enemy after the other, the tigers could not maintain supremacy without reinforcements. An enforcements were not available. As a result, the the mission was changed in the division ordered to withdraw from the area. Resented, i think, the fact that we had to give up this terrain that we had taken and held. Certainly, we were not driven out. We withdrew. It was a sad disappointing indeed to receive orders to withdraw from there, especially after it appeared that the overall objective had been one. Won. April 11 to 22nd, the combat fatigue tigers went south. They stood poised along the north bank of the danube. And Infantry Division was already fighting whereeeee the t german army was trying to make a desperate stand. [gunfire] in a matter ofl a few hours. As the lead vehicle passed the outskirts of the town at 8 54 a. M. , a message will back to combat command. A few units later, the paris radio announced the American Forces had captured it when in fact, we were still fighting there. With a capitulation, the tents three the three combat commands of the 10th Armored Division proceeded forward. Town after town was gobbled up in the great rush. Are division was ordered to attack down through the bavarian withto the path to link up american troops coming north through italy. The germans had threatened to make a lastditch stand in what was referred to as the German National readout area. There had been a lot of talk about undercover activities by what the germans referred to as werewolves. As we approached the alps, we could see them from a distance. And it certainly made all of us pause and wonder what awaited us. They were very beautiful. Great, snowcapped peaks. Unit, itign armored was also, rather forbidding. Actually, when we got into the alps, we found our little resistance. Downur battalion went through towns. While clearing the roadblocks , the scene of the world famous passion play, and International Red cross representative came at the other side of the roadblock. He had with him a german captain. They wanted to negotiate for the the 1936 scene of winter olympics. They wanted us to great not to shoot up the town. After considerable discussion, we agreed not to shoot unless the germans fired at us first. Town, therived at the International Red cross representative escorted us through the town and the germans lived up to their bargain and did not begin firing until we were well beyond the city. This ended the war for my task force and i cannot think of a better place to end it. I am colonel thomas tamerlan. I commanded war ii the 11th take battalion of the 10th Armored Division. Hadhe staff of the division spent two years trying to pick the best place to end the war, they could not have done as well as we actually did. Hotels onre were big the lake where the men could go swimming and boating. Of course, plenty of skiing. An iceskating. In addition, there were horses available so that they could go horseback riding. To relax fine place after the war. The war was over and won. Had metrs of the 10th and thumped the best of the enemy. They had covered 600 which are, bloody miles, fighting almost every inch of the way. Prisonersaken 56,000 and 600 cities and towns. War was over and won. The fighting was finished, thank god. You can watch archival films on Public Affairs in their entirety on our weekly series, saturday and sunday here on American History tv. 2020 busspan campaign is traveling across the country asking voters, what issue should president ial candidates address . One of the issues i wish the candidates for 2020 would talk about more often is the issue of Mental Health. It has been a controversial topic for the past several years and a lot of politicians may say, oh we are going to do this or that. But i feel like not a lot is being done about it. And now, all of a sudden, it feels like it seems like nobody is talking about it as much anymore. I would like to see that issue have more attention again because it is a very serious issue that is plaguing millions of families across this country. And i would like to see more Health Programs help people that are afflicted with unfortunate Mental Health problems. One of the it choose that is very close to home for me is immigration. I would love to other candidates from either party speak on the topic of immigration and Immigration Reform as well as the current immigration laws and the current climate that immigration has played a part in our country because as we know, america is a melting pot. That is something that truly has to be addressed because we cannot ignore what is currently going on.
