WWII 101st Combat Medic - 326th Airborne Engineer Combat Battalion - paul torak - 04-08-2008


Dear Sirs

 

My name is Juerg Herzig, I am swiss and I am researching a combat medic who was assingend to this. His name

 

is John D Segel, Army serial number 17081821, born October 4, 1921 and died January 17, 2002 in San Diego. He was a combat medic of the 101st Airborne. He got 2 Bronze Stars, the combat medic badge and the Purple Heart. On his

 

ETO ribbon he has 3 bronze Stars and the arrowhead devide most likely for Market Garden.

 

He was a medic assigned to the 326th Airborne Engineer Combat Battalion, 101st Airborne Division and was attached to the 506th

 

Parachute Infantry Regiment for Operation Market Garden. Two of his Bronze Star Medals are for Heroic Achievment. One during Market

 

Garden and the other for Bastonge.

 

I am looking for the general order to his Purple Heart and any other information like photos, patches just anything. He was near

 

Vechel where he got his first Bronze Star.

 

Any information is highly welcome. I would like to thank you in

 

advance.

 

Cordial Greetings
