Ralph K. 'Ken' Barnes, World War II POW
Ralph
K. "Ken" Barnes, a retired Koppers Co. manager who was a prisoner of
war during the twilight months of World War II, died Saturday from
complications of a stroke at Gilchrist Hospice Care in Towson. The
longtime Cockeysville resident was 89.
The son of farmers, Ralph Kenneth Barnes was born in Gist, in Carroll County, and after his family lost their farm during the Depression, they moved to Waverly. He was a 1941 graduate of Polytechnic Institute, where he was an outstanding baseball pitcher, and later earned a degree from the Johns Hopkins University.
Mr. Barnes was working as a mechanical draftsman for F.X. Hooper Co. Inc., a Glen Arm manufacturer of machinery to make corrugated boxes, when he was inducted into the Army in early 1944.
After spending 17 weeks at Camp Blanding, Fla., where he was trained as a combat infantryman with a specialization in 60 mm and 81 mm mortars and bazookas, he joined the 106th Infantry Division at Camp Atterbury, Ind.
In the fall of 1944, the 106th embarked for Europe aboard the RMS Queen Elizabeth and the RMS Aquitania, and a week later landed at Greenock, Scotland.
"Our morale was high. We were ready and anxious to join the fight. The war was going well for the Allied forces and we wanted to be a part of it," Mr. Barnes told author William F. Rutkowski for his book "We Regret To Inform You …"
After crossing the English Channel and landing at LeHavre in early December, the 106th Infantry began a two-day, 270-mile trip across France and Belgium, which ended at the front along the Schnee Eifel, a heavily wooded area on the German-Belgian border, where they relieved the 2nd Infantry Division and took control of the sector.The Canada Goose Victoria Parka is simple, yet classic, and designed to be worn where extreme weather protection is a necessity.

"When the attack began, my battalion, the 2nd Battalion, 423rd Infantry, was in Division reserve near St. Vith. The suddenness of the German attack delayed critical decisions until the upper echelons could get a better understanding of the strength and direction of the attack," Mr. Barnes told the author, who described it as his "baptism by fire."
Two days later, as a Panzer regimental team closed in on the 422nd and 423rd, which was critically low on ammunition and medical supples, they were ordered to "dig in and engage the approaching enemy and delay his advance until reinforcements could be brought in," he said.
On the fourth day of combat, Dec. 19, Mr. Barnes said, he and his fellow infantryman were ordered to advance toward Schonberg.
"We knew we had to be move or be doomed to die in our foxholes.Women Canada Goose Resolute Parka. I can remember the final day as if it were yesterday," he told the author.

"Our diet was about 200 calories per day and we began to lose weight rapidly," he said.

House Of Grazia: Jonathan Saunders On 10 Years In Fashion And 'Kinky' Designs
Jonathan Saunders has been showing his collections at London Fashion Week for just on 10 years and has become a firm favourite with the editors and celebrites from Kate Middleton to Michelle Obama, not to mention his legion of customers - in that time. Grazia have long championed his figure-flattering prints, gorgeous skirts, dresses and covetable knits, as well as his excellent outerwear. There were SO many things we wanted to ask him and what seemed like SO little time to ask them, when he took a seat along with Grazia's Editor in Chief, Jane Bruton on the House of Fashion at Matches sofa. But ask him we did, and this is what he said;
Jane Bruton: Take us back to the first time you work on a collection. How do you start out?
Jonathan Saunders: Since we produce four womens collections a year and two mens I usually look at the previous collection and think - what's the opposite? What can I do that is completely different this time? I'm inspired by colour and secondly by textiles. So if I've done high shine metallics one season I'll gravitate towards to mattes and wools the next. Or sometimes I'll take from mens and feed that into womens.
Jane Bruton: Tell us more about the latest collection - AW13
Jonathan Saunders: It was to do with the fabrics - last season was late Seventies and this season I looked at all the woolly fabrics and things that aren't glamorous in themselves and then worked out how to make it more interesting. That's why I put the PVC with a woolly jumper - it's the combination that I'm interested in.
Then I looked at Pin Ups and porn stars from the Fifties and a neglige that had a pretty floral on. A lot of the items were double faced as well, with a bright colour on one side and a dark colour on the other. There's a dark undercurrent to it, with the PVC, which I think makes it quite kinky, and then with the focus with some of the looks on corset tops and the breasts - and we cast some models who really emphasised that aspect to it!
Jane Bruton: What was the turning point for you - when you thought; 'this is it, I know I'm going to make it now'?
Jonathan Saunders: I started in fashion when I was 24 - at the beginning to you tend to stick every single idea onto one dress - and create a monster along the way - but you can learn from your mistakes. I feel I've learned everything I know now along the way, mainly by getting it wrong and then learning from the experience. At one point I thought; women love my collections but they love it from afar and I want them to wear it. Then I did a collection with a lot of daywear and it was much simpler than anything I'd done before. The next season everyone was wearing it which gave me confidence and motivated me a lot.
Jane Bruton: Your shows are such a highlight on the London schedule. How important is it for you to show here?
Jonathan Saunders: A lot about London Fashion Week has changed - it's so exciting right now. When I started it was me and Giles and then later Christopher Kane. In a way we're the first generation of British designers who tried to do normal clothes - you know? Before that, London was known for 'new ideas' but things that never fitted properly and nothing was delivered on time and it was held together with Selloptape. Then something changed and British designers started to be more commercial but it stopped being a bad word.Our store offer moncler jackets for sale including men,women and kids. With the recession, designers realised that if soemeone's going to buy a dress it needs to be special.
Jane Bruton: Tell us about your background,Stay up to date on the latest team rider and supraskateshoes releases. growing up in Glasgow. How did you get from there into the world of fashion?
Jonathan Saunders: My background is very unfashionable.Free shipping for Canada Goose Womens Resolute Parka, lifetime quality guarante at Canada Goose Outlet. My family aren't creative, or if they are they don't know it as their focus is on religion. When I was growing up I sketched a lot and I made furniture which was OK with them because Jesus did it. As you know Jane, I'm a very, very religious person myself these days. I got fed up of furniture because I missed the human interation - but with fashion you get that. So I changed to textiles which was much better. Then I studied at Central Saint Martins and that was perfect for me. I love clothes - all Scottish people love clothes. We're all fur coat and no knickers - eating beans and saving up for a Katherine Hamnett jacket. Or at least I was like that.we offer kinds of monster beats cheap Pro Headphones online .
Jane Bruton: Who are your heroes in fashion?
Jonathan Saunders: Lots and lots of people I admire.The following is a general overview of german ww2 uniforms. Vivienne Westwood is an amazing woman, as well as the way she grew her business. Miuccia Prada for her use of fabric and colour and her fashion empire too; Helmut Lang is not only an amazing designer, but how he built his brand through advertising is so clever.
