Golf carts the runaway favorite identified at Langley charrette By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record Adding golf carts to move people between the South Whidbey Harbor marina and Langley’s business district was the runaway people’s choice from a workshop meeting earlier this month.
Public input results compiled by a Langley woman and the information assembled by the city’s director of Community Planning both confirmed that electric golf carts were the preferred method. Sharon Emerson, a critic of the proposed funicular, gathered copies of the charrette
feedback forms about people’s preference for a way to improve access to the marina. On her site, langleyfunicular.com, she calculated that 48.33 forms favored the golf carts as the top choice. Michael Davolio, Langley’s director of Community Planning, said 130 matrixes
were filled out and handed to him at the end of the April 14 meeting. He didn’t give a specific number, but agreed that the top choice was golf carts. In a distant second, the funicular ranked SEE CHARRETTE, A12
Freeland bald eagle lives to soar again By JUSTIN BURNETT South Whidbey Record An injured bald eagle from the Freeland area was released back into the wild Thursday. And after months of recovery at a wildlife center on San Juan Island, the bird couldn’t have made it more clear that it was ready to go home. Secured in a plastic crate covered by a blanket, a handler had barely unlatched the gate when the bird burst out with a clank and took flight over a grassy field. “Yeah, she kicked the door open,” laughed Vicki Taylor, a rehabilitator at Wolf Hollow Wildlife Rehabilitation Center.

South Whidbey man seeks kidney match, donors By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record
By JUSTIN BURNETT South Whidbey Record After nearly three decades of cutting hair on South Whidbey, Theresa Johnson set down her shears for good this week. The longtime Freeland stylist officially retired Wednesday, closing her home-based salon on Dorsey Drive. She and her husband are heading for warmer climes and a new life in Hemet, Calif., a small city that’s about a 45-minute drive from Palm Springs. They’ll also spend part of the year in the Lake Stevens area, as fair-weather residents of Lake Connor Park. In an interview with The Record on her last day in busiSEE JOHNSON, A3

Ben Brager of Freeland takes in some sunshine with his dog. A serious illness forced him to quit his job and move back home while awaiting analysis for a kidney donation.
Ben Brager doesn’t look sick, but he is. Even when he is not ill, he is still sick. Brager, 24, has two autoimmune disorders, and he will live forever with the threat of having colds that leave him bedridden for weeks, joint pain and occasional to regular dialysis. Good luck getting him to offer up his life story. He’d much rather talk about upcoming plans for a lingcod fishing trip to the San Juan Islands or his September wedding.
The Freeland man who was born and raised on South Whidbey is back home now. Living with granulomatosis with polyganiitis, an autoimmune attack and inflammation of blood vessels, means that his body is attacking itself. In Brager’s case, it has gone after his kidneys and his joints. Most of his life Brager has had the disorder. He was diagnosed at 12 years old, a terrifying experience for him and his whole family. He ended up leaving the school district to be home schooled, and eventually SEE BRAGER, A5

Are your dog’s
ears burning?
a dog’s digging at his ears can be the first sign of an allergy or a simple infection of the outer ear. In fact, about 20% of dogs will get itchy ears at some point in their lives, and it’s one of the most common reasons why dogs are seen by veterinarians. Addressing the root cause of itchy ears can save both you and your dog some scratch. If your dogs ears are burning and it isn’t because you’re telling someone what a great dog he is, stop by and tell us about your dog. We can help you identify the cause and understand the science, and help you find an effective, natural solution.*

NAS WHIDBEY COER files new Navy lawsuit A citizen’s group that sued the Navy in 2013 has filed an additional action to get the controversial EA-18G Growlers to stop flying in Coupeville. The Citizens of Ebey’s Reserve, or COER, filed a motion Monday in federal court asking a judge to rule that the aircraft be forced to stop using a Coupeville landing strip until the Navy completes its Environmental Impact Statement in 2017. “The EIS isn’t going to be done until 2017,” said COER board member and attorney Ken Pickard on Tuesday. “We’re being irreparably injured every time they fly. We’re not going to wait.” The Motion for Preliminary Injunction was filed in the United

States District Court, Western District in Seattle. While Growlers fly at both the Navy’s main Ault Field and its Outlying Field Coupeville, or OLF, the citizens group’s main concern is with the Field Carrier Operations, or touch-and-gos, in Coupeville. COER said they are concerned with the homes, businesses and organizations that lay in the flight path at OLF. In recent years COER has expanded its original mission to close OLF and has stated its larger goal is to get the Growler removed from the Pacific Northwest. Pickard said Monday’s motion was simply one of many fronts on which the group is fighting. While the Navy is always looking to balance real-life training with simulation and other locations, ceasing use of OLF is “unrealistic,” said Butch Bailey, former Wing
10 commander and president of local Navy League. “From a national security standpoint, right now that has to be done,” Bailey said. “OLF is uniquely set up in order to provide that kind of training.”

ning of the school year. The district ordered two more new buses in March. He said the district has the money available, but he needed board approval to increase the budget for the fund. The Transportation Vehicle Fund was increased from $334,000 to $434,000. The board approved the request unanimously. The buses are expected to arrive in time for the start of the 2015-16 school year, as Poolman said they are usually built and delivered within six months of ordering.
Waldorf students honor MayFaire Students of the Whidbey Island Waldorf School will partake in centuries-old traditions during MayFaire on Saturday. The free event will take place from 11-3 p.m. Saturday, May 2 at the school. “They’re celebrating the return of spring and summer on its way. It’s a celebration of joy and the bounty of the summer months,” said Franney Kenney, music teacher. Kenney added that activities such as organized dancing are a good way for children to learn to work together. Because the whole school is involved, it’s also a chance for younger students to observe their elder classmates before progressing to a new grade themselves in September. The festival will feature
an assortment of Irish jigs and traditional American tunes played by Kenney on penny whistle and her brother on fiddle. Other activities will include jousting, face painting, garland making, beanbag tossing and, of course, the May pole. Kenney noted that for middle schoolers, the days leading up to the festival afford a good opportunity to learn a bit about its origins and Medieval history. “It’s kind of amazing to step into a tradition that’s hundreds and hundreds of years old,” Kenney said. According to Sheila Weidendorf, enrollment director, there are typically about 120 to 180 attendees at the festival each year.

graduated as salutatorian. “He was fine one day, seemed to have the flu for four days until he had a blood draw and it showed kidney failure,” said his mother, Pam Brager. Brager, a lifelong outdoorsman who favors hunting and fishing (the real fishing, he jokes, not sitting in a boat drinking), studied marine fisheries and eventually entered the world of boat building. But getting sick regularly affected his attendance and he left his job out of respect for the company. “I felt like I was being a burden more than an asset,” he said. “Before, you could start missing a couple days of school,” he added. “Now, you miss a couple days of work and can’t keep a job.” Since leaving his job and moving home in February, he’s able to be on his parents’ insurance plan. That helps cover some of the bills for his monthly doctor and special-
$
ist visits and the 15 prescriptions he takes, but even with just the co-pays, the costs are adding up. As a means of lessening the burden, his family set up a GoFundMe account with a goal of $50,000. The amount, Pam Brager said, is a rough estimate based on conversations she’s had with her insurance company and from research that would pay for a kidney transplant and recovery. To date, $16,045 has been raised in 14 days. Other
people have volunteered to be tested as a possible kidney donor, though the family has high hopes that his father, Todd Brager, will be a candidate. “It’s a very humbling experience,” Ben Brager said. “I’m not a big people person.” The current amount raised online would have covered the cost of his most recent biopsy, he said.

takes. It results in a “moonface” because of the swelling of tissue, but taking the drug was never really a question for him. “Without it, I’d be dead. You take what you can get,” he said. Brager, an optimist, said he hardly worries about the procedures, the fundraiser, or much else. Why would he? He said his mom and fiancee do all the worrying for him while he’s busy living his life. “It’s all gonna work out in the end,” he said.

Publisher’s column By the numbers: A celebration of 91 years and counting By KEVEN GRAVES
As the South Whidbey Record reflects on 91 years of continuously serving this community, we’re taking time to reflect on what that means, and our role as your local newspaper. Self-promotion is not a strong suit for community newspapers. We are great at tooting others’ horns, but very rarely our own. That’s why, in today’s Record, we are launching our new campaign, “We Are Whidbey,” with a full-page ad. During the coming year, we will also be sharing the story of this newspaper and its amazing staff. In addition to 91 years, here are some other numbers to consider: 21 — That’s the number of people who work for the Whidbey News Group, receiving benefits, vacation and sick leave. These are people who shop in our community, attend their children’s and grandchildren’s athletic events, volunteer, vote … these are your friends, neighbors and relatives who believe in the role of a community newspaper. These are people with ink in their blood. 386 — That’s the total number of years members of this staff have worked in newspapers, most of which has been at Whidbey News Group. That’s experience that’s hard to replicate. Within those years are thousands of hours interviewing sources, writing and editing copy, taking photos, working with advertisers, building ads, delivering missed newspapers, stuffing envelopes, taking telephone calls, building pages … the list goes on. 21 — That’s the total number of carriers who deliver the newspaper to your homes, often in the pitch black of the wee morning hours, rain, snow or hail. Whidbey Island is expansive, and many people live down long, unpaved roads. It’s not a glamorous job. It is on the front lines, though, and they are an invaluable part of this team. 336 — The number of twice-weekly, weekly and monthly publications we print each year. Those publications are The Record, the Whidbey News-Times, The Whidbey Examiner, Crosswind, Whidbey Xtra and Homes Land Islander. 45 — The number of special interest publications that we produce each year, including the Islander, the premier visitors guide to Whidbey; Best of Whidbey, a holiday gift guide; sports programs, songbook, Who’s Who and A Taste of

Lots to learn from similar projects Editor, There are two successful funicular projects on the West Coast: Dana Point, Calif. and Ketchikan, Alaska. The Ketchikan Cape Fox Tram is 24 years old and was developed to connect Creek Street/downtown with the Cape Fox Hotel/ Conference Center and City Civic Center 130 feet above Creek Street. Powered by a 5 horsepower motor/cable system, maintenance is low. It undergoes a daily inspection (cleaning), and a halfhour per week inspection of rollers. One cable roller may be replaced per year, and the primary cable is replaced every five years due to weather (standard is 10 years) at a cost of about $10,000. Again, that’s “ … because of our weather conditions” (up to 200 inches

The car is graphically tuned every five years with maintenance costs approximately $5,000-6,000 per year (costs for interior elevator/ manager). The tram was developed for conference center/civic center connections after the Creek Street Historic District Facilities Plan (1984) identified connection need through planning process. The tram experiences high-volume use due to the cruise ship industry in Alaska since mid-1990s. The tram did not attract cruise ships nor were they associated with its original purpose. Tourist season visitors pay $2-3 per trip, generating up to $70,000 in revenue (not applicable to Langley). I have ridden and operated the tram many times since 1991 — it is an elevator.

Marina’s growth an island issue Editor, I attended the meeting in Langley, re: ideas to move people up and down from the Marina to Cascade Avenue.
The three options that make the most sense are funicular, elevator or trolleyon-wheels. All three choices can have a wheelchair lift. Communities have a moral and legal obligation to facilitate ADA accessibility for residents as well as guests. Many people think this people-moving conversation is just a “Langley” issue. It is not just Langley-centric, for a variety of reasons. Every property owner on South Whidbey has a financial stake in the Marina – we’ve paid for the Port of South Whidbey’s marina expansion, and we want to see the marina continue to be successful. The $500,000 grant from Island County to Langley is from all taxpayers in Island County, and was generated in part because of the marina expansion.

expansion. I hope for a new restaurant, some condos, maybe even a fresh seafood shop. Between April/May through Sept/October, the population of both Langley and South Whidbey dramatically jumps in size, essentially doubling. Yet, somehow, the planning decisions for Langley as well as South Whidbey plan only for the six months of low/winter populations ... why? Whether the final choice is a funicular, an elevator or a trolley on wheels — all three of these ideas have merit, and can serve well. This decision should not fester into arguments of which idea is right, since there is no way any one idea will make everyone happy. The future economy looks better every day. Let’s not waste time.

Comparison in leaflet was off base Editor, When I attended the April 14 meeting on the proposals for the Langley marina, there were brochures being handed out at the entrance to the meeting hall and on the tables inside titled “The Langley Funicular… we can make it happen!” Upon reading the brochure I noted the author(s) of the brochure made some claims as to the similarities between Langley and Saltburn by the Sea, which is a Victorian seaside town on the North Sea in North Yorkshire, U.K. I happen

proud of our team — the city council, supervisors, city staff, volunteers, Main Street, and the Chamber of Commerce — and their dedication to providing quality public service.

Here’s a direct quote from the brochure: “With a population of only 6,000 — virtually the same as greater Langley and similar demographics, Saltburn also has a greenbelt surrounded by a rural area with charming village shops,” etc. I did not know until I did this search on Saltburn that it even had a “cliff lift” as it’s referred to on the websites for Saltburn. I did walk out on their pier and walk along the beautiful North Sea shoreline and dine at a restaurant or two. An online search for Saltburn found the following factual information: as of the 2011 census, Saltburn’s population was listed as 5,958. Langley’s 2013 census population is listed as 1,045. I also noted from several tourist

Thank you for the many memories and high quality experiences along the way, and the respect and support you gave me during my term in office. In working together we will continue to make a difference for the citizens and the future of Langley. Sincerely, Fred websites that in Saltburn are the following lodging options: four hotels, seven bed and breakfasts and inns, 13 vacation rentals of various types, five specialty lodgings (farms, cottages and apartments), a golf club with a hotel, and that currently Saltburn has 40 restaurants, just for comparisons sake between Langley and Saltburn. It seems that other than both places being located next to bodies of water there is little in common. I find it disingenuous that this brochure’s author did not even do a cursory fact check before publishing it. I encourage all readers who have Internet access to look up this information for themselves and to view the many photos online of the “cliff lift” and see the size and scope of it in comparison to Langley’s marina.

Soccer seniors dazzle in final league home match By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record Facing a hapless Lakewood squad, the senior-laden South Whidbey boys soccer team put on a show with a seemingly effortless 8-0 win Wednesday night. The 10 Falcon seniors shined in their final Cascade Conference home match, controlling the ball and racking up shot after shot, goal after goal. Even South Whidbey’s senior goalie, Charley Stelling, managed to score a goal. For the seniors, many of whom have played together since they first started in organized soccer, punctuating their team chemistry with a resounding win was a perfect end. South Whidbey, as it had in the previous game, moved at will against Lakewood (0-12-0 conference, 0-14-0 overall). The first goal was scored less than a minute into play. With all
the seniors starting, which has not happened all season, deep reserve Coel Cable fired off a shot that was deflected to senior Kameron Donohoe who headed in the loose ball. “It felt really good, not gonna lie, especially with the weird goal that I scored,” Donohoe said. “It feels really great in my last game here.” Cable got his second varsity goal of the season in the 11th minute (the other was scored in the previous meeting with Lakewood). Taking a cross from senior Andy Zisette, Cable lofted the shot over the Lakewood goalie, then barely cracked a smile as he ran to reset in the center circle. His demeanor belied the magnitude of the moment. After being cut from the program his freshman and sophomore years for being out of shape, he worked relentlessly
to cut weight and condition for his junior season when he played junior varsity. Eager to be part of the program, most of this season’s minutes came in JV matches, but he made the most of his varsity playing time and especially on South Whidbey’s senior day. “I’m just really happy,” Cable said. “I worked those two years I didn’t get on. A lot of things that I’ve done, I haven’t seen the rewards yet. I’m really happy I finally got to see that with this (match).” Zisette got in on the action a couple of minutes after having a header goal waved off for an offsides violation. Using his distinct height advantage, Zisette burst into the box from the left sideline and smashed in the ball with his forehead on a cross from senior Jeff Meier. After a brief ceremony recognized each senior and their parents,
South Whidbey got right back to form. Zisette dribbled through three Cougar defenders, drew out the keeper and knocked in the ball past his diving arms in the 45th. Taking a penalty kick, Stelling blasted the ball low to the goalie’s right. He dove and blocked the shot, but couldn’t collect the ball as it rolled to his left where Stelling chipped it in unguarded. With limited reserves, South Whidbey’s coaches rotated their starters out and back in to play different positions. Kai da Rosa, pulled for much of the second half, moved to a wing position as junior Lucas Fulton took over at striker. Fulton scored a pair of goals within two minutes, in the 65th and 67th. One came on a lofted cross by Cable, the second on a cross from Meier. “It’s really good to enter into the playoffs getting high numbers and
doing good,” Cable said. “The last couple weeks against the other teams we were able to get results but it was pretty close. It’s nice to have things click together before the playoffs.” With the match’s outcome well in hand, South Whidbey employed a trick play. Falcon senior Bryce Auburn, one of the team’s stalwart defenders, moved to take a corner kick but faked a switch with senior Davin Kesler, who dribbled along the goal line before passing into the box for Auburn to boot it into the back of the net. South Whidbey was poised to take the top seed in the 1A District 1 tournament next week. Before the postseason, the Falcons had to face the Sultan Turks on Friday after The Record went to press. Sultan is also a 1A Cascade Conference team and the game will be its final home game.
Baseball veterans lead charge against King’s A brief and emotional pregame ceremony Wednesday set the mood for South Whidbey baseball’s final home game of the season, a 5-1 win over King’s. The Falcons’ five seniors all took the field and played the whole match, a small departure from the usual lineup this season. Each one had a moment to star, separate from their introduction announcement and presentation with their parents. When it came time for head coach Tom Fallon to introduce his son, Trent Fallon, the words got stuck in his mouth as he choked up with tears. “It was a great senior day,” Fallon said. South Whidbey played slow and steady, scoring each inning except the fifth, getting a pair of runs with two outs and stranding several King’s
runners in scoring position. “You really couldn’t have drawn it up any better; two-out RBI and throwing guys out at the plate,” Fallon said. King’s looked poised to sour South Whidbey’s senior day. In the first inning, the leadoff batter knocked a hardhit grounder to Falcon shortstop Ricky Muzzy, who bobbled the ball and wasn’t able to get the out. The next hitter ripped a line drive that just slipped out of second baseman Connor Antich’s glove as he dove for it, rolling into left field. With two on, Falcon senior Mo Hamsa got the next hitter to fly out to deep right field. Campbell Albertsen, a senior, caught the high fly ball and launched the ball to home plate where Falcon senior catcher Brent Piehler tagged out the runner for the double play. “That was a huge momentum turner,” Fallon said.

“That was just textbook where he set up, he got behind the ball, got the ball and sent it home.” South Whidbey took a lead it would not relinquish in the first inning. Muzzy led off with a double to the center-field fence. A grounder by Antich moved Muzzy to third, and he was brought home by a single to shallow center by Hamsa, his only hit on the day. In the second inning, sophomore Will Simms scored off a two-out single to center field by Albertsen. “If we can continue to do that we’re going to be pretty tough,” Fallon said. “To get those clutch hits, it’s a backbreaker for the defense and pumps up the offense.” Hamsa fanned two batters after beaning one to close the top of the third. Antich led with a single to shallow rightcenter field. With two outs, Trent Fallon brought him around with a single to left-
center field. South Whidbey jumped ahead further in the fourth inning. Isaac Sullivan knocked a single to shallow right field and had Josiah Colby pinch run. Colby stole second and reached third on a fielder’s choice by Albertsen. With two outs, Muzzy’s grounder to the shortstop was bobbled, allowing Colby to score and Muzzy to reach first. Muzzy scored after stealing second and taking third on the overthrow, when Antich hit an infield single and beat the throw. King’s got on the board in the sixth with a grounder to the shortstop that brought home Knight junior Jack Kennelly. Hamsa got out of the inning and stranded a runner on first with another strikeout. In the seventh, Fallon relieved Hamsa on the mound. He gave up a leadoff line-drive single to center field, but got the next three

them. “The bubble that we had is slowly popping,” said Elliot. They were sheltered, she explained, in part through the Waldorf educational structure. Unlike most of their peers, they didn’t use electronics or social media. Stadler noted that the changes are visible through their photos. In fifth and sixth grade, he said, there is a different look in their eyes.

hadn’t noticed significant changes by looking in the mirror, they were quite evident when looking through the portraits. Physically, the students said, the biggest changes have come in the form of hairstyles and weight fluctuations, losing “baby fat,” as Boram put it. Mentally, they said, they gained a greater consciousness of the world around
It’s almost like looking into their souls, Stadler said. “It’s you, you’re still there,” he said to Boram. Stadler, a parent himself, said it has demonstrated to him the brevity of childhood. “I will always have the vision of their youth in my mind,” Stadler said. “It’s been really touching to watch them grow up on film.”

Langley photographer Michael Stadler documented a class of Whidbey Island Waldorf School students for eight years through portraiture. This and other portraits will be displayed at his studio through May.
“He captured the things that stayed with us, like our personalities,” Boram said. “But he was also able to implicate the things that changed in us.” Boram explained that his “stare,” a trait unique to him, remained throughout the years though several other physical appearances changed.

Owen Boram, Alohi Elliot and Indiana Huey, all age 14, have grown up on camera. Though the three aren’t Hollywood stars, they are the subjects of an eight-year project by Langley photographer Michael Stadler. The project, entitled “Transcending Youth,” follows the progression of a Whidbey Island Waldorf School class from first through eighth grade in a series of portraits. A selection of each graduating student’s portraits will be displayed in Stadler’s new studio at 222 Anthes Ave. in Langley throughout the month of May. A reception will take place from 4:30-7 p.m. Saturday, May 2 at the studio. Stadler explained that the idea was posed to him by one of the students’ parents. Stadler is also the Waldorf school photographer. About 10 of the original students have remained throughout the process. A total of 17 are graduating from middle school, and about 13 have come and gone throughout the years. In the beginning, said Huey, he was a bit shy in front of the camera. In one of his first-year portraits, he covered his eyes with his hands, though his smile peeks out beneath. By the time of their final photo shoots, he said, he and fellow students were equally comfortable and contemplative, recognizing the project’s completion. Glancing through the photos Thursday evening, the students remarked upon certain memories of their own childhood and one another’s. Though Boram said he
“You can see something spark, or change,” he said. Life events such as changes in interests and family dynamics also contributed the students’ changes in appearance. As a child, Elliot was heavily involved in the arts, dreaming of becoming a professional ballerina as an adult. Everything changed, she said, when she picked up a softball in fourth grade. She’s now playing on the select team for the Snohomish Shock Softball Club and will soon be on her way to the World Series in California. For Huey, he joked that it was fairly simple, amounting to “time and hormones.” Boram noticed changes when his two elder siblings graduated from Waldorf and he began to acclimate more socially with peers. Elliot and Boram noted that the boys began to pay more attention to their appearance in the later years, even becoming a bit competitive. “You guys got pretty suave at the end there,” Stadler said. “It was amazing how he could capture our different personalities,” Elliot said.

Vets, survivors commemorate 70th anniversary of Dachau liberation By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record As Frank Burns approached the gates of Dachau in the early morning hours of April 29, 1945, he had no idea what to expect. A soldier in the 42nd Infantry “Rainbow” Division during World War II, Burns’ unit had been sent on an overnight patrol with orders to take the camp if any Schutzstaffel (or S.S.) remained within its gates. This week, seven decades later, the former Clinton resident stood at the entrance once more. The infamous sign reading “Arbeit macht frei,” — a replica of the original which was stolen in October 2014 — serves as a reminder to visitors of the thousands of prisoners who passed through the gates to be worked, starved, beaten and experimented upon until death. It is the first time Burns, 91, has returned to Dachau, located just outside of Munich, Germany, the birthplace of Hitler’s Third Reich. As he stood at the entrance, Burns spoke with Berlin-based NPR international correspondent Soraya Sarhaddi Nelson. The walls, the guard houses are the same, he told her. He was accompanied by fellow veterans, Holocaust survivors and their descendants for a commemorative event recognizing the 70th anniversary of the camp’s liberation and the opening of a new Holocaust museum in Munich. In addition to the public events, such as the replacement of the sign and a ceremony led by Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich in honor of the liberators, Burns and fellow vets were scheduled to have a private discussion with Dachau survivors. Dachau was the first concentration camp established by the Nazi regime in 1933 and served as a model for future camps. By the time U.S. troops overtook the camp 12 years later, more than 206,206 prisoners of various nationalities, religions, ethnic descents and political affiliations had been held there, according to intake records. This number did not include the thousands of Russian prisoners of war who

About a quarter million prisoners were detained at Dachau, the first and longestoperating Nazi concentration camp. were executed en masse at the site. The memories of the camp left their mark on Burns. His daughter, Clinton resident Gail LaVassar, said he kept his experiences largely to himself, though there were times when he briefly mentioned them, such as when a long ago house fire claimed the life of a neighbor. When he told her of the tragedy, he said there were some smells from the war that he would never forget, LaVassar recalled. Though her father said little else about his wartime experience until he was in his 70s, Burns always told his children to avoid watching war movies or television shows which glorified the act. Her father has always been humorous and easygoing, she said, except when the topic is war. It was too
painful for him to talk about, LaVassar’s mother had told her. Burns was first exposed to war on Dec. 7, 1941. He was 17, a high school senior living in Honolulu when Pearl Harbor was attacked. He volunteered for the Coast Guard, taking supplies by boat to the leper colony of Kalaupapa. After graduating from high school, Burns moved to Seattle, where he met his future wife Dorothy and completed the first two years of an engineering degree at the University of Washington before being drafted in April 1944. About four months later Burns shipped off to France, arriving in Paris on Aug. 25, 1944, the day the German garrison had surrendered, liberating the city from German occupation. Not long after his arrival,
Burns and fellow soldiers and companions Arnold Goss and Stan Weisberg found themselves in a “crash infantry-training course” and were sent to the front lines with the 42nd Infantry (Rainbow) Division. The group replaced those lost in heavy fighting at Schweinfurt and embarked on a march through Germany, walking 20 miles a day while dodging sporadic shots. It was during this time that Burns first saw the corpses of German soldiers. In an interview with The Record prior to his departure for Munich, Burns recalled his surprise at how similar the deceased looked to him and his friends, Goss and Weisberg. “We were fighting other humans,” he recalled. “The ones that weren’t humans were the S.S. They were
behind the German soldiers, driving them.” The Rainbow division was one of three, including the 45th Infantry and 20th Armored to liberate Dachau April 29, 1945. By the time the 42nd arrived that morning, an earlier-arriving division had taken the camp, capturing or driving out remaining S.S. Burns was instructed to stand guard at the gates until medical units arrived to administer aid to victims. All he could see over the high walls, recalled Burns, was a smoke stack, which was part of the crematorium. When service units arrived and opened the gates, Burns glanced in to see carts filled with the corpses of Dachau victims. He said he has been contemplating that moment quite a bit as of late, while working on a speech for the memorial. Survivors specified questions they’d like the GIs to answer, including how the soldiers felt when they encountered the victims’ bodies. Burns’ emotions are no
less complex now than they were 70 years ago. “That was one of the questions asked of everybody who participated,” Burns said. “Everybody said, ‘I don’t remember how I felt.’” “My theory is that you’re in this state of battle,” he said. “You’re extremely intense, and you’re more worried about keeping yourself alive than what happened to these poor people.” “The other side of that is that… it is the primary memory of the war, seeing those people, the dead,” he continued. “The ones that were alive were just barely alive.” Although Burns did not personally encounter any Dachau survivors that day, U.S. soldiers discovered more than 30,000. “It’s something that’s been on my mind since then,” Burns said of that day in 1945. LaVassar, who is in Seattle caring for her mother while Burns is away, wrote in an email to The Record that she gets chills when hearing of the gratitude the Dachau survivors are expressing to Burns and thinking of the lives he saved. “My dad is a very humble man. In his conversations and writings he portrays himself simply as a soldier following orders,” she wrote. “I feel in awe. Mostly, I feel fortunate that he survived the war and I am proud that his contributions helped to bring freedom to the people detained at Dachau.”
