Looking for information on the 138th Combat Engineer Battalion during WWII

[stevew1]

Hi, I am the grandson of a veteran and I can't find much info on the 138th. Can anyone help me out on this ?

 

Thanks.

I'll see what I can drum up. Have a pretty full day today, so will do what I can later this weekend. On the chairwoman for our local parks and rec and today is our Earth Day event, so...

 

Pleased to have you on the forum. A warm welcome.

Hello Starkforever!

 

Welcome!

 

And what is so incredible about this site is that information will come in not just months later - but years! It is fabulous what you continue to learn!

 

So glad you joined,

Welcome to the forum. So is your name Stark or are you a serious Game of Thrones fan?

Ah, we "taped" it and just watched the latest episode this morning. Man we love that show.

 

Funny thing is, when I saw his NAME, that's immediately what came to mind. Great minds think alike Major!

Haha yes, I have read all the books and love the show adaptation.

Also has anyone had any luck on finding some information on the 138th CE? The only thing I can find is a book about their exploits but it is in a library in Wisconsin.

 

Thanks,

Ah, still on my to-do list. Haven't forgotten about you, just am tied up in a zillion project this week and of course, behind here and in with my email. Ah, I need a secretary. LOL!

There is some info here, on this forum:

Obviously I will keep looking. But the best thing to do at this moment is to contact the Army Corps of Engineer's Office of History and NARA in Maryland, to acquire their archived materials. I have links and contact info in our Research Section for both these places.
