Through his leadership, two ceremonies occur at home football games in Cambridge. Before the game there’s always a special flag raising. After the game, a Retreat Ceremony features the senior band members with a trumpet playing “Retreat”. Schools all around take notice of this memorable addition to the game ceremony. A special part of his life, now that he is retired from GTE/Verizon, comes through providing Funeral Honors for departed veterans. This began in December, 2002, when he was asked to play “Taps” for a military funeral. The day was one of sleet and freezing rain, and Jim began to wonder what he had gotten himself into. Then he looked at the veterans of all ages in attendance. They stood at attention with ice forming on their sleeves and rifles, but still had that special look in their eyes. Jim knew then, this was something he wanted to participate in. Now he goes to approximately 100 military funerals a year all over the area. Christ United Methodist Church plays an important part in his life. There he serves as trustee, teaches an adult Sunday School class, and plays trumpet in their Praise Band. He also conducts a worship service twice a month at Cardinal Place. Everyone in the community recognizes Jim’s musical

talent. Under his direction since 1996, the Cambridge High School Alumni Jazz Band performs annually at the Salt Fork Festival and many other venues. While Jim and his wife, Trudy, have played in many area bands and orchestras, their favorite right now is the Muskingum Valley Symphonic Winds. The Navy has become a family tradition as Jim’s son and daughter-in-law are currently serving, and his two step-sons have served in the Navy. Their grandfathers were also Navy veterans. What a grand tradition! This veteran’s advice would be, “Find enjoyment in what you are doing. Cherish every experience.” He encourages young people to enjoy music, something they can enjoy the rest of their life. By serving in the Navy, now Jim understands that special look in the eyes of the veterans. “It’s a look of pride and and a look of love; pride in knowing that by serving they’ve made a difference, and a look of love for their Country and their fellow man.” Please remember to honor the veterans you know for their service to our country to protect our freedoms.

aylight saving time comes to an end each fall, at a time when the hours of available sunlight already are beginning to decline. Some people are more accustomed to darkness than others. Norwegians, Swedes and people living in Alaska and the upper reaches of Canada near or above the Arctic Circle may go through a period when winters can be especially dark. Fairbanks, Alaska, gets just three hours and 42 minutes of sunlight on the winter solstice. Those in Barrow, Alaska, will endure a period of 67 days of darkness, according to Alaska.org. Residents of Seattle, which is even further north than cities such as Fargo, North Dakota, or Portland, Maine, deal with more darkness than those living outside the city may know. Although much of the rest of North America doesn’t experience such profound periods of darkness, when
Dec. 21-23 will mark the shortest days in Ohio with 9 hours and 10 minutes of daylight each day. Have the candles ready and perhaps a dinner party with friends and family planned!
the darkness of fall and winter arrives, it can be difficult to maintain a positive outlook. Borrowing some of the coping mechanisms relied on in northern latitudes can help many people to see the dark in a different light. Be aware of SAD. Seasonal affective disorder, or SAD, is defined by the Mayo Clinic as a type of depression that’s related to changes in seasons, beginning and ending at about the same times each year. Symptoms tend to start in the fall and continue into the winter, sapping energy and making a person feel moody. As with other types of depression, SAD can get worse and lead to severe problems if left untreated. Light treatment, talk therapy and medication can help people who are susceptible to SAD. Make daylight hours count. Spend time outdoors while the sun is bright in the sky. Make an effort to switch your schedule if work interferes with getting outdoors, even if all that can be managed is an outdoor walk at lunch. Sit by a bright window and soak up rays whenever possible. Celebrate winter activities. Go skiing, snowboarding,
outdoor ice skating, or snowshoeing. Look forward to winter for what can be done, rather than what can’t. Socialize more often. Instead of holing up indoors alone, frequent the places that become indoor gathering spots for locals. These can include coffee houses, breweries, restaurants, or even the local church. Plan more social occasions with friends and families so everyone can collectively shoo away the winter blues. Exercise more. Use the darker hours as an excuse to exercise more, be it at the gym or outside. The Mayo Clinic says that exercise and other types of physical activity can relieve anxiety and depression, lifting an individual’s mood as a result. Light a fire. Set the kindling ablaze in a fire pit, fireplace or woodburning stove, or just light a handful of candles. Flames can be soothing and less harsh on the eyes than artificial light. Fall and winter darkness does not have to send a person into the doldrums if he or she embraces the right attitude.

Serves: 4 as an appetizer
1. Preheat the oven to 325 F. 2. Combine the tamari, honey and garlic cloves in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for 5 minutes, but watch carefully so the mixture does not burn. Remove from the heat and set aside. 3. Meanwhile, place the rack of ribs in a deep baking pan. Add 1 cup water, or enough to cover the bottom of the pan. Cover with aluminum foil and place in the oven. Bake the ribs for 45 minutes. 4. Remove the water from the baking pan and brush the marinade on the ribs. Bake, uncovered, basting frequently with the marinade, for 30 minutes longer, or until thoroughly cooked. 5. To bring a crisp finish to the ribs, preheat the broiler or prepare a hot fire in a charcoal or gas grill. Broil or grill the ribs just until crispy, watching carefully to prevent burning. 6. Squeeze the Meyer lemon over the ribs just before serving. Cool, cut and enjoy

RECIPES This take on fruit cake is chewy, crunchy and wholesomely rich. With this recipe your guests might just come away with a whole new appreciation for fruit cake. Fig and Walnut Fruit Cake
Ingredients: Vegetable oil spray 1 pound walnut halves and pieces 1 pound dried figs, stems removed, quartered 3⁄4 cup all-purpose flour 1⁄2 teaspoon baking powder 1⁄2 teaspoon fine sea salt 1 cup sugar
Now & Then
| 12
Serves: 12
3 large eggs, lightly beaten 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1⁄2 cup diced candied orange peel 1⁄4 cup walnut brandy, such as Nocello
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 225 F. Coat the inside of a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with the vegetable oil spray; set aside. Toss the walnuts and figs in a large mixing bowl; set aside. 2. Mix the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a medium bowl. Toss 3 tablespoons of the dry ingredients with the nuts and fruit to coat. 3. Adds the eggs and vanilla to the remaining dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon to form a smooth batter. Mix in the candied orange peel. Scrape into the nuts and fruit and toss with a rubber spatula until everything is evenly coated. 4. Scrape the batter-coated nuts and fruit into the prepared pan, wet your hands with cold water, and pack the nuts and fruit firmly into the pan. Set in the oven and bake for 8 hours, until the top is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. (An instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of the cake should register 215 to 225 F.) 5. Remove the pan from the oven and spoon the brandy over the top. Cool on a rack for 30 minutes. Run a knife around the edge to loosen, invert onto a rack, remove the pan, turn rightside up, and cool to room temperature. 6. Variation: You can “bake” this in a slow cooker; you will need a 11⁄2-quarter soufflé dish and a 6-quart or larger slow cooker. Once the batter is in the soufflé dish, put it in the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 hours.

otorcycle accidents can be deadly, and statistics indicate just how deadly such accidents can be compared to those that involve just automobiles. According to the National Highway Safety Administration, the fatality rate per registered vehicle for motorcyclists in 2015 was six times the fatality rate for passenger car occupants. While some people may be quick to blame rider error as the leading cause of multiple-vehicle accidents, the failure of motorists to detect and recognize motorcycles in traffic also contributes heavily to motorcycle accidents. Nearly two-thirds of accidents involving motorcycles are caused by the other vehicle violating the motorcycle’s right of way. Drivers must respect the rights of motorcycle riders, and riders would be wise to acknowledge their own vulnerabilities to cars and trucks. In addition, motorists can heed the following tips to reduce their risk of being involved in accidents with motorcycles.
Carefully check vehicle mirrors before changing lanes, as motorcycles are often obscured behind larger automobiles. Drivers should be on even higher alert at intersections and turns, actively looking for motorcycles. Forty-four percent of two-vehicle, fatal motorcycle accidents in 2013 were the result of cars trying to turn left while the motorcycle went straight, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Allow for greater passing distance when passing a motorcycle. The gust of wind that results as cars accelerate and pass motorcycles could cause the bike to become unstable. Signal all intentions to pass and allow several car lengths before returning to the lane. Direct Auto and Life Insurance advises drivers to give motorcycles the entire lane. It is not alright to pass a motorcycle in the same lane even though they take up less room. Many bikers ride tandem in lanes for this reason. Drivers driving behind bikes should increase the distance between the back of the motorcycle and their
own vehicles. Increasing this safety cushion makes drivers more able to react to the unexpected. Be mindful of changes in the weather. Driving in the rain or other adverse conditions can be challenging for cars and trucks, but inclement weather is even more hazardous for bikers. Allow for a little extra breathing room and drive slowly when sharing slick roads with motorcycles. Check blind spots often, as motorcycles can be hard to spot, especially when attempting to pass other vehicles. Exercise extra caution at night, when riding can be especially treacherous for motorcycle riders. Cars should refrain from passing and avoid using their high beams unless it’s necessary. All motorists, whether on four or two wheels can navigate safely when they are courteous to others.

DOCTOR DENNY AND
THE EXPLODING SHELL “A me rc h a nt s e a m a n wa s b ro u g ht i nto t he 38th Station Hospital… An unexploded 20mm shell wa s l o d g e d i n h i s a r m p i t a nd an operation was needed immediately.” — The Stars and Stripes militar y ne wspaper, J anuar y 20, 1945.
I
t was nine days after D-Day – the Normandy Invasion of World War Two – when Dr. William Denny, a Cambridge, Ohio, physician then running the surgical division of the U.S. Army’s 38th Station Hospital at Winchester, England, met perhaps his most unusual patient. On the third day of the Story by RICK BOOTH invasion, a sailor aboard one of the Liberty Ships in the English Channel area had been “accidentally” struck in the left shoulder by a large projectile of unknown type. There was an entrance wound, which had begun to heal, but quite chillingly,
there was no exit wound. An x-ray was immediately ordered, quickly confirming the nature of the problem. Buried between the man’s ribs and armpit was a threeinch-long bullet-shaped object, about three quarters of an inch in diameter. A munitions expert was called in to identify it. He said it was a live, undetonated, explosive 20mm cannon shell. All Dr. Denny had to do was remove it gently enough to not get blown up! Growing up on a farm in northern Muskingum County, Dr. William Denny never expected to someday find himself in England removing live ordnance from a man’s chest in delicate surgery. He graduated from high school at Coshocton just in time to enlist in the Army a month before the end of World World War One. With the war over, he was discharged after three months,

but would later put in three full years of service as an Army surgeon in England and France in the next war. Dr. Denny received his medical degree from Ohio State University in 1927 and went into joint practice with Dr. O. R. Jones in Cambridge the following year. That business partnership lasted until 1942, at which time he reenlisted in the Army and, parting from his wife and young daughter, went off to Europe for the war’s duration, not returning home until 1946. The unfortunate sailor, Robert Peck, who arrived at Dr. Denny’s hospital with an explosive cannon shell in his chest on June 15, 1944, was a member of the Merchant Marine aboard the Liberty Ship Cyrus H. McCormick, named after the famous inventor of the reaping machine that changed farming in America in the 1800s. The Cyrus H. McCormick ship had been one of the myriad supply ships involved in the Normandy Invasion at Omaha and Utah Beaches. It was one of the 2,710 “Liberty Ships” produced as fast as U.S. shipyards could churn them out to serve as cargo carriers for World War Two. The speed record for building one of these ships was less than five days from start to finish. The Liberty Ships were the backbone of American sea transport during the war, each capable of carrying 20 million pounds of cargo. Nearly ten percent were sunk by the enemy. Only three of them survive to this day as museums, but they were once the production miracle this country needed to win the war.
area, without killing him or going off. It is also not clear whether the shell came from an enemy or represented “friendly fire.” The distinction, no doubt, made little difference to the patient or the surgeon. It would be a tricky and dangerous operation either way. The munitions expert at the hospital had a good bit of advice for Dr. Denny about what to do and what not to do while removing the live shell: Keep it in a horizontal position. Avoid touching it with surgical instruments, especially the tip. No sudden movements, please. And try to bring it out backwards. Do all that, and the surgery should go just fine! According to surgical notes, the patient was anesthetized with sodium pentothal and an incision made along a fold of skin at the front of the left armpit, the goal being to reach the rear of the shell so it could be pulled out backward, per recommendation. What the x-ray did not show, however, was that a large and important vein was in the way, pressing closely against the back of the object. Dr. Denny had to try something else. Instead, DOCTOR DENNY continues on pg 18.

As for the mysterious exploding shell embedded in Robert Peck’s chest, the written medical record is unclear as to where it came from. Described as an “accidental” injury, and judging by its position and location, it appears it may have been a “spent” 20mm cannon shell that fell from a high altitude, slowed to a sufficiently degraded velocity that it just burrowed into the sailor’s chest from above through the soft spot on top of the left shoulder

the incision was carefully extended in parallel with the body of the projectile so it could be picked out from the side. Grasping it with his fingers rather than forceps, Dr. Denny removed the shell sideways and handed it to the munitions man for proper disposal. Some infection had set in around the foreign object, so a sulfa drug powder and 50,000 units of a new wonder-drug called penicillin were placed in the infected area before closing up the incision. The entire operation lasted 45 minutes, and was felt to be a complete success. After the surgery, the shell was professionally disarmed and given back to Dr. Denny as a souvenir of his most unusual operation. As the head of the surgical division at the Army’s 38th Station Hospital, though, he had many other operations to remember from those war years. His hand-written notes at the end of the war indicate that of the 337 appendectomies done at his hospital, he The 20mm cannon shell removed in surgery. performed 143 of them himself.

Top: Station Hospital 38, Winchester, England. Bottom: Today’s St. Swithun’s boarding school.
LOOKING BACK the huge, three-story main building of the St. Swithun’s boarding school for girls at Winchester, England, which was appropriated as a hospital site during the European conflict. Later, following the troops into Europe, Dr. Denny and the 38th Station Hospital relocated to Chartres and Le Mans in France. After the war, Dr. Denny returned to Cambridge to resume his practice of medicine and surgery there for the rest of his career. He served on the staffs of both Bethesda and Good Samaritan Hospitals in Zanesville, and was a charter member of the Guernsey Memorial Hospital staff when that hospital was built and opened in 1952. Many a child came into this world with Dr. Denny’s obstetrical assistance over the years.
Normandy. An online resource states, “The Cyrus H. McCormick came through the Normandy invasion with nothing worse than one member of the merchant crew hit by a bomb or shell fragment.” I think we know who that was!

Dr. Denny’s office sign with military mementos.
As for the patient who survived the most unusual operation of Dr. Denny’s career, it is believed he survived the war. It is furthermore hoped he lived long and well. Because the name “Robert L. Peck” was shared by a number of men of World War Two military age – and the Merchant Marine records are more sparse than standard Army or Navy documents – information about his post-war life is hard to track down. A partial Merchant Marine serial number in the written records gives a clue that might, with more digging, someday answer those questions. The vessel that Mr. Peck served on is recorded as having been lucky, compared to some other Liberty Ships, at
The Cyrus H. McCormick itself was less lucky than was Mr. Peck. Ten months after the invasion, it became the very last Liberty Ship sunk by a German U-boat. Six days after the death of President Roosevelt, and a dozen days before Hitler died, the German submarine U-1107 torpedoed and sank it off the coast of France near the western entrance to the English Channel. Six men died, but most of the crew survived. The wrecked ship was rediscovered and mapped in 2005 by a professional sunken ship treasure-hunting company. A week after the sinking of the Cyrus H. McCormick, German U-boat U-1107 was likewise sunk, with loss of all hands, by an aircraft patrolling for subs. The two wrecks of the hunter and the hunted lie just 45 miles apart not far off the French coastline at Brest. I wish to thank Dr. Denny’s daughter, Mrs. Kathleen Roller, and son-in-law, Mr. Richard Roller, for suggesting this article – so very appropriate for a Veterans Day issue – and supplying the original records on which to base its research. Dr. William L. Denny retired from practice in 1966, more than half a century ago, after a long, remarkable, and very productive career in medicine. Though he passed away in 1990, may his service, both to his community and to our country’s life-saving military medical system throughout the war, never be forgotten.

SURELY THE APPLE IS THE NOBLEST OF FRUITS. –HENRY DAVID THOREAU–
Photo Top Left: Bushels and bushels of apples overflow during the busy season. Photo Top Right: Fresh sweet cider is a favorite of the orchard, available to taste and to purchase.

trees and remove a block of old trees. Then in April, it’s planting time each year for approximately 4,000 dwarf trees – most of them apple. Luckily, they have a tree transplanter, which is pulled behind a tractor. They can sit on the transplanter and drop in the new trees three feet apart. With this method, they can plant over 1,500 trees in one day. There’s always work to be done. After planting trees, the trunks are hand wrapped with wire to keep them straight. Trellises, holding two wires that go through the trees, keep the branches from hanging to the ground. During the summer months, the apples need to be thinned on each tree. An apple tree can not be too full of apples for best production. In the fall when picking begins, some extra help is needed from young people in the community. All the apples are hand picked from ladders. That is one of the reasons they switched to dwarf apple trees so they could more easily be reached.

pple cider becomes a favorite drink during autumn, and apples are ranked number one in the top ten healthiest foods. So harvest time felt perfect for a trip to Hillcrest Orchard of Walnut Creek to get fresh apples and cider. Rain or shine, this is a bustling place in the fall. With over 20,000 bushels of apples this year, they have over twenty varieties from which to choose. Two customer favorites are Golden Delicious and Honey Crisp, my personal choice. Their newest variety is now available – Evercrisp, a combination of Honey Crisp and Fuji. Hillcrest Orchard has been in the family since 1968. Today Merle and Lela Hershberger own and operate the orchard with help from their children. Their grandfather, Jacob Hershberger, still helps out as often as possible. With over 75 acres of apple trees and 5 acres of peach trees, the Hershberger family works all year round. When the new year begins in January, it’s time to trim

Fresh pressed apple cider is made at their business operation every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. During October they make 4,000 gallons each week. One Friday/ Saturday last year they sold 2,250 gallons. Their cider is unpasterized so it’s placed immediately in a cooling tank. That also means that it’s only good for about two weeks. Be sure to get a free sample while visiting. Whatever cider isn’t sold is placed into wooden barrels for one year. There it becomes apple vinegar, which is also available at their store. However, apples and their products aren’t the only thing on hand. Hillcrest Orchard’s the perfect place to find organic fruits and vegetables while in season. Their products look picture perfect. You can also buy pumpkins, mums, baled hay or straw. You’ll be surprised at all the treats available. Outside during the fall months, you’ll enjoy the flavor of Hostetler Kettle Corn. Freshly popped in the lot, the smell draws you to their tent. Pick up a bag to munch on while driving home through beautiful Amish country. The children and grandchildren feel part of the business as they have grown up in the orchard and store. Hopefully, those youngsters will someday continue providing apples and peaches for all to enjoy.

Merle’s son, Mark, lists pressing cider and picking apples as his favorite chores. When asked what he’d like to do in the future, his answer, “Plant more trees.” What do these hard working young men like to do for fun? Deer hunt! There’s evidence of that around their store with several deer head mounts. Hillcrest Orchard is open from July through April. It has even become a requested stop for tour buses. Many people make an annual visit there in the fall and some stop by often to pick up fresh produce. One man said he took the cider home and froze it in small containers so he could have fresh tasting cider for months to come. Stop by the orchard and pick up some apples straight from the tree. Apples can be enjoyed in so many different ways: apple pie, applesauce, apple butter, apple crisp, dipped in caramel, or just take a bite of a fresh, juicy one. However you decide to use the apples, they will taste delicious. Remember, apples are also healthy, so that old adage of ‘an apple a day’ is a good rule to follow. Stop at Hillcrest Orchard of Walnut Creek on your next trip to Amish Country and experience the fresh taste of fall. Contact Bev at GypsyBev@hotmail.com or follow her blog at www.GypsyRoadTrip.com
