Welcome Don. Sorry about the little mishap with registration.

 

So happy to have you here, and can't wait to see what you have regarding your father's unit. This is great.

 

Warmly,

Hello,

My father was in the 1284th, serving in Europe and the Philippines. Don't know what Company. He was 96 in April and I'm trying to put together a history of his service/unit in WWII for him.

 

Were you able to to put up a site or are you able to point me to a resource?

 

thanks so much for your help.

There is an article on Joe Vitucci on page 24 of this newsletter. It is a PDF which you can open or save.

A write up in a 1946 newspaper regarding Theodore Goho of the 1284th. Look in the middle column under Honorably Discharged.
