Barker, U.S. Army, was the 43d Division Artillery Commander. He served in the campaigns in New Caledonia, Guadalcanal, Russell Islands, New Georgia - Munda, Baanga, Arundel - Kolombangara, New Guinea, Luzon - Philippines, Cabanatuan. He was awared the Silver Star with Oak Leaf Cluster, Legion of Merit with Oak Leaf Cluster, Bronze Star, Air Medal. From the preface: "Its original members were National Guardsmen who had enlisted because they liked army work and wanted to be identified with units rich in military tradition. Those who later joined the Division Artillery lived up to the high standards set by the parent unit in previous wars. In addition, this history may well prove useful in the education of artillerymen in the future. Because the fundamentals of artillery have not changed, their application in amphibious and jungle warfare, as described in this book, should be of value to the artillery student. " Major General Harold R. Barker had a distinguished thirty-three year military career that spanned service under the famed General John Pershing in the battle with Mexican Revolutionary leader Poncho Villa, and through both World Wars. A native Rhode Islander who settled in Pascoag during his retirement years, he was a highly decorated U.S. Army Officer who was considered one of the world's finest artillery experts. He was honored with the Rhode Island Cross, and worked as a very successful manufacturing executive and banker. Public Edition--Presumed also first edition.…
