My grandfather served with the 804th Aviation Engineers on Saipan in 1944-45. I have some photos that he took while on the island. I haven't been able to locate info on other members of his unit. I would love to find out more about his experience there. He passed in 1996 and didn't share much about it. Any info would be appreciated. His name is Elliott Robbins from Providence Rhode Island.

Testing icons after July update. Seems we are having the same problem. I haven't been able to pull up any custom icons from the past, since our upgrade earlier this year. They show up when I go into settings, but when I pull down the icon menu while creating a post, they simply aren't there. Just the standard ones. Hmmm...will have to contact tech support and see what gives. I miss our old stuff!  :(

This Friday,July 21st 2017, is the opening day for the newest World War II movie titled "Dunkirk". I think this is going to be a good one, getting my tickets for this weekend.

Have a good one everybody!

Looking for relatives of George Clawson or George MacNeil.  Pictures on my other posting of the unit and many of its members.  I have finally received the morning reports and other docs that showed the Co. B 2plt was detached and saw action in Bulge which I did not know.  My father was in that platoon...his name was Angelo Manzie

The Cost of FREE Doughnuts

I've had several veterans tell me the same thing; they never did and never will donate a dime to the Red Cross. This is why!
