Chatting with a member of the 1251st

Great article on Tophat. They had all kinds of sports teams there including football, baseball and basketball there to help kill time. My fathers unit was being readied to be sent to the Pacific.

This is a picture of the Chapel that my fathers unit built 3rd platoon, B company 1251st Battalion Combat Engineers. Aside from wedding, funerals and christenings, this was probably the last time my father went to church.....
