Gary,
I just realized I have a photo of one more guy in the panoramic photo. The attached photo is a close up I've cut from a photo labeled on the back as "Sterling Sykes and Demello at Gosselies Belgium 3Aug1945." I can't find Demello on the list you posted some time back, but I believe Demello is the 16th man from the left on the back row of the Company A panoramic photo. What do you think?
As for the photo date, I'm wondering about it. That would be after the end of the war in Europe. Would they have been in Belgium at that point? I'm afraid I don't know the unit history like I should.

All right, folks!
Here's an updated A Company photo with DeMello added. If anyone has photos that have names on them even if you are not sure which guy is which then please post the image and information. Research on Ancestry and elsewhere may allow us to ID them. Keep in mind, this goes for guys that are in other companies, also. We are trying to ID as many men from the battalion as possible not just A Company.
Later, my friends!
