  Grandfather served 1951-1971
Posted by: Steve Grooms - 01-14-2016, 04:20 PM - Forum: Korean War - Replies (9)


Hello. My name is Matt Snyder. My grandfather was Sgt Maj William Snyder. He was in the army 51-71 and served in the 10th Engineer Battalion. I'm trying to find out information on his service. Projects he worked on , things he was a part of etc. I was wondering if you could help me find out where to find this information or where I could start. Or even better if you had any experience with him or his unit.

I also want to apoloize ahead of time, if some of my terms are not correct. I have cerebral palsy and so was never able to serve myself. Thank you.

  Farewell Bill Jasper - 87th Inf Div

Always so sad when emails or cards get returned to me.

 

:tearyeyed:

 

Yesterday my Christmas card to Bill Jasper was returned with the words - Return to sender- Deceased - written on it. Sigh!

 

I met Bill through Jim Hennessey and enjoyed our correspondence over the last several years. You will be missed!

  James Phillip Regan, 2756th Combat Engineers, Company A
Posted by: Mike M. - 01-02-2016, 08:27 PM - Forum: LOOKING FOR... - Replies (27)


Happy New Year everyone,

 

My Grandfather served in the 2756th Combat Engineers, Company A. He enlisted in April of 1942, and was honorably discharged in June 1946. I have his discharge paperwork and medals, ribbons, etc. However, his file was among those burned in the fire in St.Louis. I am trying to get in contact with someone at the Rhode Island VA to try to get a picture of what he went through but that is slow moving. Family stories say that he saw/experienced many awful things during the war. He did not talk about what he went through and I was never able to meet him because he passed away before I was born. He has the European/African/Middle Eastern Service Ribbon among others. If anyone has any information about this unit, I would be very grateful.

  Earl Arnold Brady, Company B 202nd Combat Engineers
Posted by: Bob Pagini - 12-30-2015, 02:11 PM - Forum: LOOKING FOR... - Replies (10)


Hi!

 

I am hoping someone might be able to help me. I am looking for any information, memories and, if possible, a photograph of my Grandfather Earl Arnold Brady. As far as I'm able to ascertain he joined the US Army in 1941 and found himself in Company B of the 202nd Combat Engineers. He was for a time stationed in or around the environs of the town of Helensburgh in Scotland for a period during the war.

 

Unfortunately, Earl passed away in the 1950s and my mother has very little memory of him. It would be great if I could find out a little about his involvement in the war.

 

As I said, I know very little about him but if anyone has any questions regarding him I will try my best to answer them.

 

Kind Regards

 

Scott
