Thanks to the help of this site and Ed Marinello I was given the change to speak with Bob and learn about his time during WWll.

 

Below is a link of an article written about Bob. He will be greatly missed.

Hello old vets,

 

My father died years ago and he never said much about his stint in Europe. I saw his discharge papers but they didn't have much info. So I found in his stuff which my sister gave to me his old Ration Cards. Dated April '44 and Oct '44 they gave his unit as the 1302d Engr (GS) REGT and he was in Company A.

 

I found a coulpe of Cemetery markers with the unit, in GA and PN, but that is it.

 

Does anyone know or know where to find info on his unit during that time?

 

Thanx

 

H.H.

Well Papa Art and I are off to the October 101st Meeting here in Michigan I get to present Don Burgett with the little gift I made for him; the slide show presentation of his trip to Europe last month. Hope he likes it.

 

I'm sure he and Mark Bando will have all kinds of interesting tales to tell regarding their journey.

 

I am bringing some items of interest along with me too. Many of the things that I've received from vets over that last few months including items from Normandy. The guys will love it! :pdt34:
