I was online doing some research about details for the 612 engineer corp that my father was in. I couldn’t help but notice the sketches that you used.

Who is the artist?

The reason I ask is because they have an uncanny resemblance to my father’s work, of which I possess 10 originals.

Are you still involved in this project?

Thank you for your reply.

Sincerely,

Laura McAtee

 

I was given copies from various artists from the archives. I have no idea who did the actual drawings for they are contributions from dozens of engineers from WWII.

Let me know.

It's not necessary to delete them, but giving him credit would be nice. I can see if I can get photographs taken of these as well. They are large - like 3' x 4'. some are smaller.

My father's name is Howard J. Partney, he was CPL in 612 Engineer light equipment battalion; their biggest assignments was to build the bridges, and blow up enemy bridges.

I can't seem to find much online about the engineer corp group. Most of the men that served with him are now deceased.

Attached is an article about him and his brothers that served.
