  Operation Dragoon - The "Forgotten D-Day" - Aug 2013
Posted by: Walt's Daughter - 01-28-2013, 12:27 PM - Forum: VETERAN'S REUNIONS - Replies (8)


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.

  VI Corps Combat Engineers 2013 Reunion

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.

 

FOR THE LATEST INFO, please consult the attached PDF!

  Farewell Mitch Kaidy - 87th Infantry Division
Posted by: Walt's Daughter - 01-22-2013, 11:11 AM - Forum: Announcements, Get Well Wishes & Farewells - Replies (1)


I talked with Mitch Kaidy on several occasions via email and letters and was always pleased when he shared his insights on the 87th Infantry Division.

 

Here is a note sent to Jim Hennessey of the 87th:

 

 

 

This is a copy of the eulogy that I am giving at Mitch Kaidy's service tomorrow afternoon.

All,

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?
