IN GOD WE TRUST
All Others Pay Cash

Publisher: New York : Doubleday
Copyright Date: October 1966
ISBN #: 0-385-02174-7 
Notes:

 

"Too bad Schwartz couldn't have been here," I said.
Flick grunted, busy with his change counting. We both knew that Schwartz had been shot down over Italy. They never found him.

The above text appears in the last chapter. An interesting note that in the movie, "Great American Fourth of July" during the 'blind date' scene, Shep and his blind date Pamela, Schwartz and his date Clara Mae, are watching the movie "Love is a Many-Splendored Thing". Clara Mae says to Schwartz "This is so romantic. It's just like us." In the movie William Holden and Jennifer Jones fall in love and Holden goes off to war and never returns and in real life Schwartz goes off to war and never returns.
