The 1132nd Engineers was in reality the 1132nd Engineer Combat Group.  IT acted as a coordinating HQ for likely a revolving set of smaller units like combat BN,s Bridge Companies, Dump Truck and heavy equipment companies etc.

According to the Army Unit Citation and Campaign Credit Register, the 1132nd received credit for the Central Europe and the Rhineland campaigns..and occupation credit for Germany.  For part of that time, the 1132nd was attached to the Ninth US Army (According to its history).  

Camp Lucky Strike, by the way, served as a holding and embarkation camp for troops leaving the ETO and returning to the USA.
