ARTHUR WILDEROTTER WAS MY WIFE'S FATHER. HE SERVED AS AN OFFICER IN THE ARMY DURING WWII. HE WAS STATIONED IN CALIFORNIA WHERE HE TRAINED INFANTRY TROOPS ON AMPHIBIOUS LANDING OPERATIONS. AFTER THE WAR, HE PRACTICED LAW IN SOUTH ORANGE NJ. HE LIVED IN MAPLEWOOD NJ AND RAISED HIS FAMILY THERE. MR. WILDEROTTER DID NOT SPEAK MUCH ABOUT HIS EXPERIENCE IN WW II. HE WAS ONE OF THE FINEST MEN I HAVE EVER KNOWN.
