Christoph, you are right - the Joyful bunny had not visited the proper sites. Waiting for important news today.
These are fascinating sites you sent!
In the past, I do not think you could ever of had a chance to find Guidry because I was not sure of his name. And I was not sure of the spelling as I would pronounce how Mom and Dad referred to him - the best I could think was Geedree but even that looks like Gee and it was not a hard G. Guidry spelling would in my initial research, if I found it, have been overlooked by me.
As I tried researching the name Geedree in Louisiana, I got told it was a very common Louisiana name. One reason for that I can now see - Larry sent info that included Guidry's Mom and Dad and all of the brothers and sisters that he had - just that family was huge!
The crash site information is fabulous! So great for research even in the particular case of the POW's that while non Siegburg folks have fascinating stories including Carl R. Carlson whose wife I got referred to. I found him on the list. As always, Thank You very much!
I do not think our Guidry is part of those French sites - he appears to be Infantry based on the entry in your first site. However with the size of his family and probably Uncles etc. could be a family member - even a close one.
That conscript site shows capture in October. Fascinating because of Dad in October too!
As always THANK YOU! It is wonderful that while I have to work on some non War related things in addition to Mom - that Larry just came in like a Bomb! It is incredible!!! Crazy good fortune!!! My Dad would be so happy!!!
More,
Jean
