Hello everyone,
My uncle Charles Crawford served in "A" Company of the 292, and died February 18, 1945. He is buried in Holland, and after my Dad's passing, I have been trying to gather information on his military service. I was pleasantly surprised to see his name on some documents already posted in this forum, and would appreciate any information anyone has on his unit.
Thanks,
Steve Crawford
Steve,
Here's couple of things that I dug up on your Uncle from various sources including his enlistment record and his entry in a book about those who died in WW2 published by the government in 1946. He is 22nd down in the left column with the DOW meaning "died of wounds".
