Not a good week. Unfortunately another has left this great earth.

Another great combat engineer has gone to his final resting place. William F., Bill, White, Company B 48 Eng © Bn. died Monday 20 February in Kewanee, Illinois.

I always hate to announce the loss of another great seahorse. Vito Finelli died last week and went to the special place God reserves for soldiers and Vito was a good one. May he rest in peace.

36 Engineers are rugged......John Fallon II. Capt. USA Ret.

Thank you John. So sad to post the loss of two engineers on the same day here in the forum.

Mr. Olen McKnight, S/Sgt. Co A 48th Engrs went to be with the Lord on 24 February 2006. A native of Clinton Arkansas he was one of the driving forces of the 1108 reunion committee. WE will miss him, may he rest in Peace.

Thank you Al Kincer for submitting this to me. Rest in peace!

I am posting this for David.

Dear Mrs. Chard:

My father was in the 1286th. Engr. C. BN., and I have been trying to find

any information that I can for my Dad. He has a hard time trying to

remember things now as he is 87. I can not seem to find anything. Would you

have any information on the 1286th? They were formed May 12, 1944 at Camp

Rucker, Alabama and inactivated ion 5 Nov. 1945 at Camp Cambell, Kentucky.

Any information or suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thank you,

David Dings
