Bob MacGillivray passed away Oct. 12th, 2005.
Sgt., 286th Field Artillery Observation Battalion, Battery B, Sound Platoon
Thanks to the help of this site and Ed Marinello I was given the change to speak with Bob and learn about his time during WWll.
Below is a link of an article written about Bob. He will be greatly missed.

So sorry to hear of his passing. I did read the article and it was really nice. His legacy was his smile. What a great way to remember someone. Hope he is smiling in heaven now along with all the other great vets of WWII.
BTW, don't worry about posting in the wrong place. It's easy for me to move things.

Sounds like a great guy. There were very few of those FA Observation Battalion and I would have liked to learn more about what they did.
Thanks for sharing that.
