Talk:Curtis G. Culin/@comment-24.45.5.217-20191019015803

The Max Hasings report of the idea coming from another indivudal has never been verified. All available information abot the idea points to the fact that Culin had the idea, and with the assistance of CPT James Depew; Co F 102nd CAVSqdn CO, and 1LT Stephen Litton; Sqdn Maintenance Officer, the idea became reality. SG TCulin had he idea, Depew and Litton assisted in the fine tuning of the gret idea. At the time the entire Allied effort was stalled in the "bogage", the First Army was gaining feet per day,with numerous causalities. Word went out for ideas and Culin answered that call. There were seeal ideas thrown around in the First Army area, but none were as simple as the Culin Device, or Rhno Plow, or Hedgerow Cutter.
