There seems to be a mistake with the unit number, there is no 1050th listed any where.
The 1051st Engineer Port Construction & Repair Group is the first of the numbered groups that was formed at Fort Screven, at Tybee Island in 1943. The 1051st was in Sicily prior to going to Naples in October 1943 to repair the port there. The The 1051st Engineer Port Construction & Repair Group was the only port repair group in the Italian Theater. They would have been at the Port of Naples in November 1943.
i`ll do some more searching tomorow.
