(ANTIMEDIA) The ACLU issued a “travel alert” in the state of Texas Wednesday, warning “anyone planning to travel to Texas in the near future to anticipate the possible violation of their constitutional rights when stopped by law enforcement.”
By Paul T. Angel. On February 17, 2016, Willis Allison Carto, 1926–2015, was laid to rest in Arlington National Cemetery, on property once owned by the family of Confederate war hero Gen. Robert E. Lee.
Carto earned this honor, having received a Purple Heart after being shot by a Japanese sniper during his time in the U.S. Army in the Pacific Theater of World War II. “I never held any animosity for that Japanese soldier,” Carto told this writer many years ago. “He was doing his duty, and I was doing mine.”
