Alex Bauer Now Among The Few Who Experience ‘Longest Day’ GI/From B1 moved to Cooperstown eight years ago to be near his son, Dr. Mike Bauer, and his family – one of a select group. It was a distinction he never sought. After the U.S. entered World War II after Pearl Harbor, young Alex, exempt from service as his family’s breadwinner – his job supported his mother and a younger brother and sister – had been working in the Brooklyn Navy Yard. By the spring of 1943, however, recruits were running short. Young Alex – “just a kid from The Bronx; I only weighed 130 pounds” – was called up and, after just one night at Fort Dix in New Jersey, found himself on a train, headed for Camp McCain, Miss., for basic training. His fate for the rest of the war was settled when his sergeant declared, “We need cooks.” The Alex Bauer, right, and a 6th Brigade comrade fraternize with duty was one day on, one day off. varied U.S. allies during a whirlwind trip to Paris when the “It sounded like a pretty good deal French capital was liberated in August 1944. to me,” said Bauer.

While Bauer’s contingent didn’t Heart for his actions. The brigade was billeted around land until mid-afternoon, soldiers By mid-afternoon – about the Torquay and Paignton, seaside of the 6th had come under fire time Bauer was landing – the resorts in Southwest England, and at 8:10 on approaching Omaha brigade was “finally able to start training began at “a frantic pace,” Beach’s Dog White zone. “About their original missions,” and by according to the unit’s history. 500 yards from shore, all h--dusk had landed 2,900 tons of Security was tight.

to ensure the landing zone and nearby roads and bridge were in good enough shape to allow hundreds of bulldozers, thousands of trucks and tons of supplies to move inland behind the Army. The first few days, everyone ate field rations; then the field kitchen arrived. There was an overload of sensations. “Truthfully,” Bauer said in an interview, “I can only remember little things that happened to me.” The 6th’s soldiers were on Omaha Beach for five or six months, then spent a few weeks on the French shore across from Jersey and Guernsey, with GIs assigned to prevent German troops that still controlled the Channel Islands from coming ashore. Then, the 6th followed the Army inland. Bauer’s kitchen was connected to a headquarters unit that contained everything – mailmen, a barber shop – that a small community might need. That unit only experienced two casualties, two men caught in an air attack on their way back from an evening in a nearby village. Bauer had been invited to go along, but it had begun to snow and he decided to stay home. His stove was a square unit with a Bunsen-burner like flame at the bottom and a grill that slid in and out. He cooked full breakfasts – eggs, pancakes, French toast – stews, pies, biscuits. “We always tried to get fresh eggs,” he said. “We got a carton of cigarettes at the end of the week and always tried to swap eggs for cigarettes.” There was an everyday-ness to it, and young Alex had little idea of the bigger picture. “The concentration camps – I had no idea that was happening – no idea,” he said. In the famed Allied assault on St. Lo, he got an inkling of where

things were going. One thousand U.S. bombers were flying over, battering the German positions. The Germans had no planes, no means of retaliation. On Aug. 24, less than three months after the landing, Paris was liberated. Bauer and a couple of pals borrowed a Jeep, saying they intended to visit Mont St. Michel, the famous island castle on the Normandy coast. Instead, they raced into Paris and experienced the elation, although they had to quickly turn around and head back to camp before they were missed. And so through the Battle of the Bulge, and so into Germany, where the Germans surrendered in May 1945. That July, the 6th returned to the States and was inactivated in October. And so the adventure ended. On the GI Bill, Bauer went to Sampson College, set up at a former Naval Station in the Finger Lakes to meet the demand of returning veterans, and studied surveying. He was one of 7,500 students who graduated there in the college’s three-year history. He met his future wife, Joan, at a New Year’s Eve party. They married and raised three children in Bayside, Queens. After retiring, he studied photography and sculpture at a community college near his home and began making busts, first of famous Jews – David Ben Gurion, Einstein, Freud – then branching out. An exhibit of his works is ongoing at the Smithy Arts Center through June 29. He kept in touch with an Army pal, Audie Sisco, who lived in New Jersey. With their wives, they would get together occasionally. “We had a drink and dinner together,” he said. “But we never talked about our war experience.”

SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT You are in danger of losing your home. If you fail to respond to the summons and complaint in this foreclosure action, you may lose your home. Please read the summons and complaint carefully. You should immediately contact an attorney or your local legal aid office to obtain advice on how to protect yourself. SOURCES OF INFORMATION AND ASSISTANCE. The State encourages you to become informed about your options in foreclosure. In addition to seeking assistance from an attorney or legal aid, there are government agencies, and non-profit organizations that you may contact for information about possible options, including trying to work with our lender during this process. To locate an entity near you, you may call the toll-free helpline maintained by New York State Banking Department at 1-877Bank-NYS or visit

FORECLOSURE RESCUE SCAMS Be careful of people who approach you with offers to “save” your home. There are individuals who watch for notices of foreclosure actions in order to unfairly profit from a homeowner’s distress. You should be extremely careful about any such promises and any suggestions that you pay them a fee or sign over your deed. State law requires anyone offering such services for profit to enter into a contract which fully describes the services they will perform and fees they will charge, and which prohibits them from taking any money from you until they have completed all such promised services. Section 1303 NOTICE YOU ARE IN DANGER OF LOSING YOUR HOME If you do not respond to this summons and complaint by serving the copy of the answer on the attorney for the mortgage company who filed this foreclosure proceeding against you and filing the answer with the court, a default judgment may be entered and you may lose your home. Speak to an attorney or go to the court where your case is pending for further information on how to answer the summons and protect your property. Sending a payment to your mortgage company will not stop this foreclosure action. YOU MUST RESPOND BY SERVING A COPY OF THE ANSWER ON THE ATTORNEY FOR THE PLAINTIFF MORTGAGE COMPANY AND FILING AN ANSWER WITH THE COURT.

Franklin Stage Depends On Donations – And Support Has Come For 17 Years STAGE/From B1 it at Hartwick College last year and it was tremendous,” she said. “We wanted to do it then, but this year, it just all fell into place.” It’s the first performance in a typically eclectic season that combines jazz and Aesop, puppets and folktales, Jane Austin and Moliere. “I follow my instinct,” she said. “I figure out what draws me and who it’s going to satisfy.” Last year, she was surprised by how many kids came out to “A Winter’s Tale,” which inspired her to bring in more family programming. The Metawee River Theatre Company returns for its third year with a Friday, July 18 performance of “The Dancing Fox: Wisdom Tales of the Middle East.” The show, featuring a variety of puppets, will once again be held

outside on the playing field of the Franklin Central School. David Gonzalez will also perform two family-friendly music shows, “MytholoJazz” on Friday, June 20 and “Aesop Bops!” on Saturday, June 21. “I constantly want to challenge what people see in the space,” she said. But the season really came together when Carmela decided to stage 14 performances of Moliere’s “Tartuffe,” starting Friday, July 25. Oliver Wadsworth, who will play the eponymous imposter, wrote and will perform a solo show, “The Tarnation of Russell Colvin,” a “Rashamon”-style murder mystery. “When we were doing readings, I just thought he’d make the greatest Tartuffe,” she said. “The season took off from there.”

PROGRAM – 11:30 a.m. Wear your favorite apron and hear Rosie Domes speak on “Dreams to Reality.” $11. TallyHo Restaurant, 14 E. Main St., Richfield Springs.

In the midst of experimental theater and music, “Tartuffe,” helps cement FSC’s mission of bringing classical theater to the hills of Franklin. “It’s all universal,” she said. “These plays are always relevant to how humans relate to one and other.” It’s a lot of work, but she has a team of eager interns to help her out. “They run our shows,” she said. “They come back year after year; they’re my favorite part of the season.” And when the curtain comes down and she makes her announcement asking for donations, “hat in hand,” as she always says, she is never disappointed by what she receives. “If you set your sights high enough, people will live up to them,” she said. “And every summer, Franklin Stage reinforces my belief that the world is a beautiful place.”
