Summary
James K. Cullen is a retired business executive and veteran of the battle of the bulge. During the second world war, as an army staff sergeant, he trained infantrymen for battle, then volunteered to go to Europe and enter the trenches himself. He was awarded four battle stars - Normandy, Northern France, Ardennes, and Germany, Bronze Star, Purple Heart with Oak Leaf Cluster, Combat Infantry Badge, and the Belgian fourragère of 1940.
Once the war ended, he returned to life as a civilian. He earned a bachelor of arts degree from Colgate University on the GI Bill. Mr. Cullen has been married to the love of his life for over 50 years. He has two children, and five grandchildren. He is active in veterans' groups, including the battle of the bulge group, and has participated in a reenactment of the battle of the bulge with a group of WWII re-enactors in Washington state. James K. Cullen is 95 years old. Band of Strangers is his first book.
