A Story Of Survival As Told By My Father in Law, Robert J. Funk. "My name is Robert Funk. I was in this train wreck in 1944 outside of Jellico Tennessee. We had just been inducted at Fort Benjamin Harrison and were traveling, we found out later, to Camp Croft, South Carolina where we would receive seventeen weeks training before being sent overseas. I was riding in a troop sleeper which was like a boxcar with a door in the middle and with bunks inside. We had just gone to bed. I was in a lower bunk when suddenly we were, uh, the train started shaking and I hit the floor and then suddenly we stopped. One of the boys opened the door to step out and he found out that there was nothing to step out to because our car was resting on the kitchen car which was up and down the bank and we had to go back into the car back of us in order to get out. By the time we got out the kitchen car was afire and which caught our car afire and it was like a furnace within a very few minutes. We had only the clothes we had on when we were sleeping. All the others burned up in the wreck. When we walked up the track and saw that looked like the engine which was supposed to go around the curve had just flew out into space and lit on its side down at the bottom of the gully. There was a Pullman car that had gone end over end down the embankment that tore loose all the bunks and uh.... Because they had just gone to bed everything was tore loose and boys were pinned in there and were hollering for help. No one along the road going by on the other side of the gorge would stop. They would slow up. They could see the fire, but nobody stopped. We formed a double human chain up and down the thing and took out all of the boys that we could get out. But, we had no equipment, nothing but our bare hands. We passed them up on the tracks and laid them along the tracks and myself after a while I quit doing that because there wasn't too much we could do and I started going along the bank and praying with the boys who were there. And, one of the boys I knelt down to pray with him and I saw that he was dead. It was quite a shock. Me being just a young boy of twenty years old. I had never seen anything like this before. They sent out an engine from Jellico and hooked on to the cars that were left on the track. We took and gathered up the boys that we had laid along the track and took them in the cars, laying them on the floor or any place that we could put them. I had the experience of having them tell me that there was a priest looking for me. Finally he came up to the window of the car that I was in and told me that the boys had so appreciated what I had done that he wanted to thank me. Of course that made me feel very good to know that I had done some good. We were pulled back to Jellico where we were loaded on another train and went on to Camp Croft, South Carolina for our training. The stories of the ones that came and helped probably were helping those who were in that Pullman car which, in which the boys were pinned in and which we couldn't get everybody out. There was nobody there to help us while I was there. So, evidently, later on they got some people out there to help which I'm very glad because, as I said, all those bunks were pulled out and pinned the boys in. One boy I definitely remember was crying he'd give anything. "SAVE ME! SAVE ME! I'LL GIVE YOU ANYTHING!" But, we couldn't save him 'cause we had no equipment. I was in that car that is hanging over the edge. The door's in the center and I thank the good Lord I was able to get out and was able to help someone. After seventeen weeks, uh, training we were given ten days delay enroute home and then we went home and were shipped overseas and I entered into the campaign in Belgium at the Battle of the Bulge and was there in the 1st Division. the 26th Regiment and we went on and when the war ended I was in Czechoslovakia."
