After high school, he spent a year at Staunton Military Academy in Staunton, VA, and graduated from Gettysburg College in 1941. An ROTC member in college, he enlisted in the U.S. Army as a lieutenant, and was assigned to the 327th Glider Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division. During training in England and Scotland he was promoted to Captain. He participated in D-Day, Operation Market-Garden in Holland, which was the largest airborne operation in the history of the war, and was given a battlefield promotion to Major. During the Battle of Bastogne, when the Americans were surrounded by the advancing Germans, he had the distinction of taking the German surrender demand to 101st commander, General Anthony McAuliffe, and delivered McAuliffe’s famous “Nuts!” reply back to the German emissaries. He retired from the Army after WW2 with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. Alvin’s father and step-mother were both antique collectors, and the love of antiques was inherited by Alvin. Alvin started his own collecting during the war in England and France, and continued to collect his entire life. After the war he became vice president of Jones Motor Company, based in Spring City, and in 1968 he retired from the trucking business and became vice president of WARE Inc., a commercial real estate company in Pottstown, PA. Alvin met his wife, Jean, at Gettysburg, and they married soon after his enlistment. They spent the next thirty years together, traveling around the USA and the world collecting antiques. Alvin was a 32nd degree Mason in Greenleaf Lodge 561 in Allentown, PA and was a board member of the Lehigh County Historical Society. He died on May 24, 1998. www.AlderferAuction.com | 1 Lot 6 Lot 3 Lot 5 1 Majolica Butter Pats. Lot of six including Etruscan, Wedgwood, some are unmarked. Leaf and Lilly pad design.
