294th Engineer Combat Battalion - 1944.

[Walt's Daughter]

You may want to try and contact this gentleman. I do not know how current the info is, but it's worth trying first:

 

294th Engineer Combat Battalion

Mr. James G. Hand

157 East Pearl Street

Wellsville, NY 14895

(Newsletter)

(716) 593-5094

 

Unfortunately I do not have anymore info at the present time. However, I strongly suggest that you contact the Army Corps of Engineers to see if they have a file on his unit. This is a free service. Please tell Michael Brodhead that I sent you.

My first suggestion? I would try Richard Horrell of WWII Connections. His name is on the link above. He has over 5000 books in his WWII repetoire and may have further info on the 294th.

 

Once you look through everything, please let me know if you have any further questions. We are always glad to assist!
