Kent,
Thanks, my friend! We all do what we can to further the cause of helping folks tell their relatives story and also to tell the story of this little known unit. I have something you can do if you would? We may have identified your Dad incorrectly on the unit photo and I now have another soldier from this photo for you to view. Can you tell me is this your father with his head down a bit shielding from the sun? I also attached a yearbook photo of him I found on Ancestry.
Thanks so much and please, take your shoes off and stay awhile.
Gary
Yup, that's him. I spotted it yesterday and was going to post about it today, but you beat me to it!
Also, thank you for posting the his yearbook page from Kaukauna. That's the first time I've ever seen that.
I remember my father mentioning Camp Butner once in a while and I've spotted him in the
May 19, 1944 Camp Butner photo. I'll post about that in a bit.
Kent
