Marbach, Cook partner with Columbia
Gorge Press on new Gorge Scenic Area book
The Columbia Gorge
Press has ventured in to
the book publishing arena
with a stunning new photo
essay project with Peter
Marbach and Janet Cook.
“Columbia River Gorge
National Scenic Area” re-
unites acclaimed Hood
River photographer Peter
Marbach with The Gorge
magazine editor Janet
Cook for their fourth book
project together.
“We are grateful to Peter
for the opportunity to
show the high end produc-
tion values of the Colum-
bia Gorge Press,” said
Tony Methvin, General
Manager.
Peter and Janet collabo-
rated in 2011 on a special
commemorative book on
the 25th anniversary of
the legislation that created
the national scenic area.
The book sold out in its
first year and when the
previous publisher went
out of business, Peter
began a search for a new
publisher.
“It is wonderful to be
working on a product that
is truly 100 percent Made
in the Gorge,” said Mar-
bach. “Partnering with the
Columbia Gorge Press has
been a blessing and Janet

Oregon.”
He’s served as the post’s
commander “nine or 10
times,” as vice commander
“seven, eight or nine times,”
on the board of directors, as
the chaplain — both post and
district — and was even the
district vice commander “a
couple of times,” with a ser-
vice area that goes from Cas-
cade Locks to La Pine.
Not a bad record for 36
years.
“They was pushing me
hard, trust me,” he said.
Leonard has helped plan
the annual Idlewilde Ceme-
tery Memorial Day service
for nearly as many years as
he’s been with the American
Legion.
“One goes into the other
after a while,” he said.

and I are thrilled to keep

work to celebrate and

(The book was original-
ly slated for release in
April.)
A serious traffic acci-
dent occurred in Port-
land late Wednesday
night involving a tractor-
trailer operated by a con-
tractor for the U.S. Postal
Service and a private ve-
hicle.
About 1,500 packages
were inside the trailer,
and the vast majority
were severely damaged
or destroyed.
The Postal Service is
retrieving all items and
will notify any senders

A book signing and lec-
ture, “Wild at Heart in the
Columbia River Gorge,”
happens on May 27 at Co-
lumbia Center for the Arts
in Hood River. Signing at
6:30 p.m. followed by pro-
gram at 7. Marbach will
share stories about images
that reflect the value of
wildness in everyday life.
There used to be more
than one veteran’s organiza-
tion in the valley, and all
would help with the service.
“Now we’re just down to
us, basically. We just inherit-
ed this stuff over a period of
time,” he said.
On Thursday mor ning
under threatening skies,
Leonard and Idlewilde Sex-
ton Bob Huskey were part of
a small crew placing flags on
the graves of veterans and
getting the grounds ready for
the weekend’s expected
heavy traffic. By Sunday
evening, Leonard said, the
grounds will be completely
ready for Monday’s 11 a.m.
ceremony start.
This year’s theme is “Hon-
oring T hose Who Have
Served,” and as such, a new,
6-foot illuminated floral
wreath will be dedicated to
all veterans buried in Hood
River County. Other high-
lights will include twenty-
two veterans’ names added
to the Walk of Honor, a fly-
over by WAAAM pilots,
Peter Marbach and Janet Cook
music by the Hood River Val-
ley High School band, a mu-
sical tribute sung by Andy
Streich, and a three cannon
salute after “Taps.”
It’s the support of the com-
munity, year after year, that
makes the ceremony happen,
Leonard said, whether
they’re working behind the
scenes to get the cemetery
ready for visitors, or in the
ceremony itself. And that in-
cludes his daughters, Shelley
Leonard and Tammy Long.
Leonard served in the
Vietnam War from June 1967
to June 1968 in the Ninth In-
fantry Division, Task Force
117, Mobile Riverine Force.
His Army unit was the only
one since the Civil War that
has held continuous opera-
tions with the US Navy, a fact
he’s proud of.
“We were in a lot of com-
bat,” he said. “Our unit was
about three years in the
Delta before things starting
going the other way. We had
2,644 KIA (kill in action) and
18,831 wounded. We were
there during the Tet Offen-
sive, and they came through
the south and went back
down through the south.”
He was one of the wound-
ed. He understands why
some vets don’t like to talk
about their war experiences.
“It’s not a pleasant sub-
ject,” he said. “A lot of people
don’t understand the con-
cept. It’s not like the movies,
it’s organized chaos. Once
the first bullet comes
whizzing through the air,
everything goes south.”
