Hi Rita:

 

That is great, great news! Congrats on the website. I will make sure to place your link on our main site this afternoon, in our engineers link section.

 

It's always nice to see yet another site dedicated to the engineers. I will take a look in a few minutes.

 

Thanks for joining. We hope you will become a regular!

Rita,

 

My great uncle was part of this original unit. His name was Norris M Granum. I have been trying to research his time he spent in this unit. He was with this unit from October 1942 to August 1943 when he and some other EM and officers were transferred to the 973rd.

 

I can't believe how excited I am to be able to find someone else that is interested about the same unit.

 

I was wondering how much information do you have about the unit? I would like to get intouch and exchange any useful information. I have been able to gather some unit reports and other documents from various govt. sources if these are of any help.
