393rd Special Services/General Services

[Big Pete]

Hello all,

 

A friend of mine - Bob - has obtained an Ike jacket from a GI who was in an engineer unit.

He found following information:

 

Thomas J. Shepherd

ASN: 32204839

Good Conduct Medal

American Campaign Medal

European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign medal with 2 Bronze Service Stars

World War II Victory Medal

 

393rd. Engineer Regiment, Headquarters 1206th. SCU, C Company, 38th. Engineers

 

What does SCU stand for?

And has anyone information on the unit?

What Army, Corps, Division was it assigned to?

 

Thanks for any help you can provide.

 

Erwin
