Thank you for this piece of history. It is just another piece or tidbit placing my Uncle (Company A 341st) with the 1058th on the Remagen Bridge. The 341st history only mention was that he was missing and one other had been injured. Thank you for your post.

After years of searching, even hiring a researcher, and finding so little information I stand amazed at how much has come to light this year for me. The message here is....Don't give up.

 

I am especially glad that sons, daughters, grandsons, son-in-laws etc. are still interested in what The Greatest Generation accomplished. Perhaps they will not be forgotten after all. Thank you.
