1010th Engineer Treadway Bridge Company
#25

My father, Richard Baker was part of the 1010th. He enjoyed training at the camp in Alabama, then crossing to Great Britain, then France. He drove a truck carrying pontoon bridge parts across France to St Goar. He stood on the French bank watching tanks liked up and bombarding the German side as infantry crossed the Rhine under fire. His bridge parts were used to construct the pontoon bridge at St Goar and then he crossed and traveled with a tank battalion across Germany and Poland where he found the war ending.
