Good snooping there pal!
We suspected he was sent to another unit, but now this would confirm it and explain how he wound up under 7th Army jursidiction.
Now we just need to find out which unit he was transferred to, for the duration.
As stated earlier, it can't be the engineer unit on his discharge papers, for they only served in Italy until the end of the war and beyond.
More snooping is in order.
Once again, grand work!
