JANESVILLE
The men of a Janesville tank company were among the many thousands of Americans who witnessed the deaths of those we honor this weekend.
The horror stayed with these World War II soldiers, sometimes so strongly that it warped their spirits.
Such was Forrest Knox, one of the Janesville 99, as we now call the men of Company A.
âHe was post-traumatic syndrome before they had a good name for it,â said one of his six children, John Knox.
Forrest could be cruel, and he drank, said John, one of two descendants of the 99 who will speak Sunday at the monument at the Corn Exchange in downtown Janesville.
