While I talked about this in the 36th/540th 2013 Reunion (it may be a possibility to hold the two together), it deserves a mention on its own.
Please see attached info sheet regarding this great event to be held
August 8-11, 2013
Sheraton Pentagon City Hotel - 900 South Orme St, Arlington, VA 22204
My husband and I are attending. Can't wait. This will be a big event. I'd like to thank those who are responsible for putting this together. What a great way to honor my father and his buddies who fought there.
What was going to be an announcement for the 36th Reunion, has now grown into something else...
Looks like a few people will still attend a much smaller 36th Engineer Reunion in PA this fall, but most of us who attended that event, will be going to combined a VI CORPS Reunion/Operation Dragoon event in Washington DC this August instead. It's sad it has come to this, but it is what it is.
I will post more info as this comes together, so stay tuned for more details, very shortly.
Looking forward to seeing everyone this summer.

I know there are a few vets of the 3rd Infantry Division on here, but I don't know what regiments they were with. I would love to talk with a few on here. (About this and a few other things)
I have been trying to find out what company Captain Richard Paul Dorrough served in. I know he was with the 15th, he was battlefield commissioned, he served from the first waves of N. Africa to VE Day. I have most of his war items, no pictures though.
Thought I may get lucky and one may have known him or known of him. Never hurts to try, right?
