Marion,

I have enjoyed visiting your site. My Dad was 1st Lt. O.M. Hooker, a member of H&S Co., 48th Engineers. I see that Albert Kincer was also a member of this unit, I would like to contact him if possible. Can you provide an e-mail address or whatever that will help with this?

I have been interested in WWII history since I was a kid, and have many books on the subject, including We The 48th, the unit history of my Dad's outfit. I have always wanted to conact other members of the 48th. I know that Gen. Andrew Goodpaster was the unit CO; is it possible to contact him if you know?

I participate with a couple WWII reenacting organizations, I would be happy to send you a photo or two if you would like.

Al Kincer will be sending me some Bill Mauldin cartoons from the war. Here's the first in the line:

Nonsense. S-2 reported that machine gun silenced hours ago. Stop wiggling your fingers at me.
