  Tracing an Army Group's Path During WWII
Posted by: lsedels - 03-26-2023, 01:44 AM - Forum: INSTRUCTIONS FOR RESEARCH - No Replies

My Dad was a 49th Combat Engineer in the Normandy invasion. I know that this unit landed on Utah Beach. But I would like to find out what happened to them in the weeks/months afterwards. I believe my Dad had pictures of one of the concentration camps so I have reason to believe that he was eventually in Germany. But I'd like to trace his unit for at least a few weeks after landing at Utah in possible preparation for a trip to Normandy where I wanted to hire a private tour guide.

Has anyone been through this before?

  Looking for an Emcee - May 20, 2023
Posted by: PDP2020 - 02-08-2023, 11:31 AM - Forum: MARION'S NEWS n UPDATES n BABBLINGS... - No Replies

Hello everyone:

A friend called the other day and told me of his involvement in a WWII music-filled event taking place at the Novi, Michigan library on May 20, 2023. They are looking for a Bob Hope like emcee to introduce the acts, tell some jokes, etc. If you or anyone else might be interested, please contact ASAP! 

This will be a fun day and who knows, you may get to meet yours truly too.  Tongue  

P.S. There is a small monetary pay-out, but the big plus is taking a trip down memory lane.   Shy

Hope everyone has a good one. Hoping that 2023 will see some more traffic at this site. I really miss those heady days of yore when we have some many active people (including many WWII vets). Here's to you, members past and present!

Hi everyone: 

Posting this information for my friend, Trapper54.

"Hi Marion

I am working on the 187th engineer combat battalion and was wondering if you could add a note on your site which would send people looking for the 187th to my page. I am running out of information to post and need some help. Thanks, Ron

Contact us at the187thengcobn@aol.com

You can sign up for more information at 187th Engineering Combat Bn

P.S. As a note of interest, Ron sent a kind donation to me earlier this year in support of our WWII site. Many thanks and Merry Christmas and Happy 2023!
