As you can imagine, it would be hard to ascertain what unit he might have been with. There were quite a few engineer regiments in Italy. I can name a few to begin with:
- 540th
- 36th
- 39th
- 85th
- 2759th
- 109th
- 40th
- 235th
- 307th Airborne
- 310th
- 328th
- 111th
- 370th
- 120th
- 206th
- 1108th
- 48th
- 308th
- 150th
- 19th
- 531st
- 313th
- 126th Mountain
- 334th
- 378th
- 384th
- 337th
- 10th
- 1051st Port Construction
- 94th General Service
- 344th General Service
- 345th General Service
- 386th
- 387th
- 696th Petroleum Distribution
- 343rd General Service
- 16th Armored
- 175th General Service
- 1554th Heavy Pontoon
- 85th Heavy Pontoon
- 235th
- 19th
- 1710th Map Depot Detach
- 66th Topographic
- 1621st Model Making Detach
- 1338th
- 169th
I'm sure I can narrow down the units that were fighting on Sept 25, 1944 and that should help us a bit. I will get back with you shortly on this.
