Description: Most people know Bemelmans as a beloved children's author. This page of the Arlington National Cemetery site introduces him as a man who served his country.
Ludwig Bemelmans, Corporal, United States Army  COURTESY OF THE TRIBUNE-REVIEW "Hotel Bemelmans," by Ludwig Bemelmans, Overlook, $24.95, 302 pages. Ludwig Bemelmans came to the United States in 1914, supposedly after he had shot and nearly killed a fellow employee of his uncle's hotel in his native Austria, bearing two pistols (presumably one of them being that with which he did the dastardly deed) to fight off hostile Indians. That anecdote we perhaps can take to be among the first of scores of too-good-to-be-entirely-accurate stories associated with his writing career.
