Found this posted in our guest book. I've already written to her and told her to get in touch with the Army Corps Of Engineer's Office of History, first. Wrote to her again this morning, and told her I would also place her request here on the forum. It would be great if his buddy was still alive and we could re-unite them again after all this time.
Here we go...
Hi, I am Jeannie Madsen Smith. My 92 year old Dad ask me tonite to try and track down info on the US Army Engineers 1017 Treadway Bridge Company. He also is interested in finding an old Army buddy named Eddie King (wife Betty) from Bronx, NY. If anyone has any info for my Dad, I surely would appreciate an email (removed so she wouldn't get spammed). Thanks so much.
If anyone has any information, please contact me and I will relay it to Jeannie and her father.
