Hi, my grandpa was the battalion commander, John Gottschalk.
37th Combat Engineers and 285th Combat Engineers. He was a LTC.

I know the only (as far as I know) living soldier of the battalion, he has a speech by LTC Gottschalk that he was going to let me borrow. Once I have a digital copy of it I'll be posting it to the 285th's website.
