Hello,
My name is Max Merry and I have been looking for years for any information on the 223rd combat engineers that was in the Aleutians during WWII. My grandfather from Gaylord, MI was in this unit and I haven't been able to find a single thing on it. I know I have the correct unit because I have his discharge papers and that is where I got the unit number from. It says Co. C 223rd Combat Eng. Could you tell me if this was even in the 6th Corp or lead me in the correct direction please. The 223rd now is listed as a National Guard unit in Mississippi I think it was. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again,
Max
I am looking up info right now and will post it here in a few....
