292nd Engineer Combat Battalion (New Member)

[Sir Gator]

Hello;

 

I am trying to find information on the 292nd Eng Combat Battalion CO A: I have seen various items but am confused if there was more than (1) Co A during WWII? I am sorry I am new to all of this.

My Grandfather (Edwin J Grosskurth) was a member of the battalion and my mother (his daughter) only has his discharge papers, and she would like very much to have more info. I have spent quite a while searching but his name does not come up in the national registry. I see photo's on this site but am not sure if he would be in these as I don't know how many Co A's there may have been during WWII.

 

If anyone can help I would be extremely grateful.

 

I am posting the only thing I do have and hope this will be enough to be pointed in the right direction, I am trying to get some kind of time line and understanding of what my grandfather would have done or been involved in so as to present her. I don't have a military photo like I see people display, hoping that I might find a picture of him through others.

 

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

 

Regards,

 

Martha

Martha,

 

Here is General Order #2 that lists your grandfather as having been awarded a Good Conduct Medal on March 28, 1945.
