...Turnipseed...

Back at the Blue Zoo, in the summer of '72 or '73, I met a kid named "Turnipseed" ... certainly a memorable name ... I'm guessing now he was probably the son of then-Col Turnipseed.

Nope, Gen. Turnipseed has four daughters, but there are alot of Turnipseeds in central Alabama and they are all related. The name is German and was translated into English by one of the early immigrants. I've known the family for years. My husband served in the 187th for thirty five years and now my son is in the unit. My husband doesn't remember Bush, but is not surprised that it's hard to find anyone that remembers so out of state 1st. Lt.
