My father's middle name was Bullard and he was named after my grandmother's uncle General Robert L. Bullard of the 10th infantry regiment(Fort Union) New Mexico. My Dad's brother was also named Robert (Bob) after my grandmother's uncle General Bullard. Robert Bullard attended the United States Military Academy and graduated in 1885 and was involved in the conflicts in the American Western Frontier, Philipines, and World War I. He received the distinguished Service Medal during World War I in the fight against Germany.General Bullard was the first commander of the Second U.S. Army by General Pershing. General Pershing gave the First U.S. Army to General Hunter Liggett. General Pershing moved then to become commander of an Army Group. General Bullard passed away
on September 11th,1947 after living 86 years. He was born January 5th 1861.
I am also a descendant of the Civil War Captain David H------- of the North from Kansas.
Captain David H------- of the north, after the war married and started a drug store in Kansas and obtained most of his medicines at first from the medicine men and women of a local indian reservation. Later as the world became more sophisticated and medicines moved away from herbal remedies to synthesized pharmaceuticals he also changed with the times until he sold the Drug store in 1925. So even though he fought in the Civil War he lived until the 1930s.
To the best of my ability I write about my experience of the Universe Past, Present and Future
