Wow, what a nice gift. Carl Furtado lent me his 'yearbook' from Fort Bragg. It is titled, 36th Engineers (Combat) - Fort Bragg 1942. This covers the VERY beginnings of the regiment and has some GREAT photos within. It is set up like a high school/college yearbook and tells all about the men and the history of Fort Bragg etc.

 

Thank you Carl for giving me the opportunity to scan it for use on the web. I promise to take good care of "her" and return it to you as soon as possible.

 

I will scan it this weekend and try to have it uploaded very soon to the main site. It will be worth the wait! :armata_PDT_37:

There has been several copies that I have missed on ebay so I'll look forward to see it. As I recall they were hard bound like a yearbook.

A big hello to you. So nice to make your acquaintance. What is your father's name. Would like to look him up and also post his photo here. Would also like to pass your info onto the other members of the 36th. Look forward to talking with you.
