  ID a Patch
Posted by: brian m - 12-10-2012, 11:20 PM - Forum: Collectables - Replies (7)


I saw how fast it took for the great people on this site to identify the last Patch ID question so I figured I would see how you do on this one.

 

This is my wife's grandfather in Europe during the war, or just after. I got to visit with him often before he passed and he told me some stories but just as is the case with my Grandfather, I didn't know the important questions to ask, I just listened (and tried to remember).

 

I do know that he was in the army and I believe part of a supply depot. I do not have much experience with patches but it looks like it is theater made and probably not one approved by the army. Unfortunately this is the only photograph of him with the patch showing and the quality is not the greatest. I look forward to seeing if you all can help with this one!

  Pictures of my Grandfather
Posted by: MCFIXALEAK - 12-10-2012, 08:49 PM - Forum: LOOKING FOR... - Replies (4)

Hi, I'am looking for any pictures of the 36th, 2828 Bn, Company C. I'm hoping there might be a picture of my Grandfather. Also, does anyone know how to get information from Ft. Custer, Mi? This is where he enlisted. I've seen group pictures of others out there. :)

Every Christmas season, I add some great, classic songs to the 6th Corps Jukebox, which are intermingled with the usual assortment of wonderful WWII tunes. Enjoy and a Merry Christmas to all our friends.

  London Bomb Strikes
Posted by: brian m - 12-07-2012, 01:38 PM - Forum: ANYTHING WWII - Replies (2)


Saw this article http://news.sky.com/...trike-in-london

 

and the map referenced by it http://bombsight.org...51.5055/-0.1845

 

Could you imagine living there at that time? I have talked to veterans who can't stand the sound of fireworks because of the memories the sounds bring back. It must be the same way for the men, women and children that were living in London at that time when they hear sirens.

Today we remember the attack on Pearl Harbor, 71 years ago. Lest we forget.
