Hello my name is Kyle Thomas. My uncle Harold G. Parnell served in WWII. He was part of the 34th Inf Div, 135 Inf Regt. He was part of the 34th as a Guardsman and was activated in February 41. He trained in Ireland with the 34th and went to North Africa. He was a section sergeant in company D and was seriously wounded on 8 April 1943 during the fighting at Fondouk Pass. He died of his wounds on 15 April 1943. One of the ways I found to honor his memory is through re-enacting. I have tried my best to outfit myself with what Harold would have had in 43. I have been to several re-enactment camps in the past few years and its a wonderful feeling to help teach and tell the stories of our fallen heros. I am an 18 year veteran of the US Air Force and am currently serving in Germany. I have visited many sites over here and still have many more to go visit. I hope I can be of some help in this forum.
Hello to all,
Kyle Thomas
