Ernie Pyle, America’s front line
war correspondent of World War
II days, still has plenty of “bud
dies” around, even though he has
been dead almos two decades now.
One gentleman who cherishes
his experiences with the thin little
man of World War II fame is now
a business administration profes
sor at A&M University.
He is Rollin Lafayette Elkins,
referred to as “Satch” by Pyle in
a newspaper story and a book en
titled “Brave Men.”
It was Elkins, now a colonel in
the U. S. Army Reserves, who re
ceived a letter from Pyle 10 days
after the correspondent was killed
on an island off Okinawa April
18, 1945.
In his Pacific-dated letter, Pyle
said:
“I suppose I will be out here
for a year if I don’t crack up in
the meantime, and I don’t look
forward to it with any great glee.
I guess I need some of you old
timers to come out and hold my
hand.”
Elkins and Pyle first met in a
cactus patch in Tunisia shortly
before German tanks and troops
came swarming out from behind
the mountains at Faid Pass.
In a newspaper story, Pyle
wrote, “The attack was so sudden
nobody could believe it was in
full force. Our forward troops
were overrun before they knew
what was happening. It was a
complete melee. The American
tanks fought till knocked out.
“A friend of mine, Major Rol
lin Elkins of College Station had
his half-track (military vehicle)
hit three times by German shells.
They were standing still, cleaning
a carburetor filter, when the third
shell hit. It set them afire.”
Pyle’s account continued, but a
citation issued later completes the
picture.
The report continued telling how
the half-track was destroyed. “El
kins directed his men to take cov
er. He was captured but escaped
under cover of darkness and walk
ed 20 miles to rejoin his organiza
tion.”
Elkins had made Pyle retreat
shortly before the heavy attack
from Nazi Panzers forces began.
“Ernie wasn’t too happy with
me then,” Elkins recalls, but
when he saw what happened he
felt better. The whole unit was
shot to pieces.”

Ministers
To Stress
Church workers were urged
here Friday by an American Medi
cal Association official to become
“stewards of body health.”
Dr. F. J. L. Blasingame of Chi
cago, AMA executive vice presi
dent and a speaker at A&M Uni
versity’s 1963 Town and Country
Church Conference, said the church
has a “unique hold on the people
which enables it to give great help
in the medical field.”
His topic was “The Town and
Country Church Meeting Our Phy
sical Needs.”
The physician called for mini-
ters and laymen to encourage
physical discipline, diet and exer
cise. In short, they should become
stewards to promote healthy minds
and bodies, he declared.
“One of life’s great expectations
is to cultivate a sound body and
mind,” the doctor pointed out.
“This soundness can have a pro
found effect on everything a per
son does.”
Such stewardships, he added,
should motivate healthful living
through education, not compulsion.
The conference, sponsored by the
Department of Agricultural Eco
nomics and Sociology in co-opera
tion with denominational repre
sentatives ended Friday.
Dr. Blasingame taught for four
years at the University of Texas
Medical Branch in Galveston and
practiced for 20 years at Wharton.
He is an active layman in his
church and serves on many state
and national boards and commit
tees. .
He said the church has tradi
tionally been a repository of know
ledge and has long concerned itself
with health.
“This is fine, but more effort is
needed,” Dr. Blasingame explained.
“Overall work being done now by
the church is only a drop in the
bucket to what is needed. Mini
sters and laymen should work more
with health groups.”
He pointed out that church
gyms, lounges and other recrea
tional facilities are admirable, but
they are only a means to an end.
“Ministers and their congrega
tions shoulld teach that life is
precious and should be preserved
through good health,” he empha
sized. “In this way, people can
better utilize the talents nature
has given them.”
