h/o Jean Schnepfe
He was the son of an Army officer. Bruce Elliott enlisted in the Army in 1942, was commissioned a 2nd Lt in the Chemical Warfare Service, and served with General Patton's 3rd Army in Europe. In 1950, Capt. Elliott led Company C of the 2nd Chemical Mortar Battalion with the Eighth Army from Pusan, South Korea, to major action at Unsan, North Korea.

He loved nature and the simple life, did not tolerate fools, and lived a long life, always by his own rules.
