New memoir - Major Frederick C Woods - 540th Engineer - Walt's Daughter - 10-29-2014 I never know what will come across my desk and yesterday was certainly no exception, for I was graced with a personal history, written by Major Frederick C Woods, of the 540th Combat Engineer Regiment, my dad's unit.
What makes this EXTRA special, is the fact that I had already read many of the official reports from NARA, and Fred's reports have been among those documents. And now I can place a face to that NAME and get to know who he really was.
I created a Memoir's page for him this morning - http://www.6thcorpscombatengineers.com/FrederickCWoods.html
Many thanks to Dan Ewing and Wirth Yarborough for sharing this with me. Here's the letter I received:
