Definitely sounds like a bad case of information overload...... courtesy of The Grand Wizards of The Secret Order of the Joyful Bunny
Did not call the Paramedics.
Larry wait until you explain to Christoph about: JEAN GUIDRY
What wonderful men you both are!
My Dad would be crying too!
THANK YOU BOTH!
Jean
Larry I was sending while you were!
And you have brought a big smile to my very stunned state!
I can not Thank You enough!
Jean
I think dad is smiling too 
Larry, the cemetery is in Siegburg, I have posted some photos earlier and a map (#227 last September). There is nothing about the Americans but a section for forced labourers, Russians, ... and another one with German soldiers.
Christoph
Holy cow, this post has seventeen pages now, how cool is that?????
:pdt34: 
Guys I am still in shock - as you can imagine.
All of this news on the missing link Guidry is astounding! Thinking about it - I realized Mom and Dad moved in 1967 to a location with a different city name. I do not know when Dad last communicated with Guidry.
Did Dad realize that Guidry remarried and his first child with his second wife was named Jean Guidry? Pretty heavy news to even write about.
More,
Jean
Marion, you came in while I was writing. Christoph and Larry are 2 of the most amazing men one could ever meet up with! It is not like I know them. They are maybe like Replacements that just show up where they get called to go.
Oh how I wish we had Stars to put on them - some special category for not just outstanding research but research that goes beyond all bounds -and with no reward expected - just doing what they can to rescue or protect or help or save others!
How fascinating that Christoph does life saving and Larry appears to work with Bunnies - and we don't know what else......
Thanks to you and your site - I have met them and the puzzle of my Dad and others who were at Siegburg is unfolding!
Jean
Well Larry, With your information I lasted until 1:40PM before, yes, I called Elizabeth .. a possible direct Guidry descendent. I left a message. I am shocked I lasted that long - but had no choice with the pressing work here and then Mom.
I still have not gotten to Non War project but working away because I must get to that.
Surprise for you and Christoph: I took a chance and called one of the newly discovered and short term Siegburg ExPow's. He was wounded in Hurtgen Forest Battle and moved on to other Camps fairly quickly. I do have notes to share but quickly I asked him about Otto. He immediately remembered the name and people calling out Otto. He thinks he was a Medic or worked in some capacity like that - as you suggested Larry and
more to follow,
Jean
Christoph and Larry,
I caved on holding off for this too - I called the contact at the History Dept of Auburn Univ. to see if they could put me in touch with the Newton family. In the phone message I said I was researching Siegburg etc.
So let's see...
