359th Engineer looking for any buddies who are still alive
#1

Received this request a few days ago. If anyone can help, please respond. Thank you as always! Hello,

My Grandfather is a 94 year old WWII vet. Recently, we were going through some old photos and came across some taken while he was enlisted. One photo was of him and 4 of his service buddies. He teared up thinking about them and wondered if any of them were still living. I would like to help him track them down if at all possible. I asked him what unit he served with and he told me Company A 359th Engineers 1st Platoon. I am not well versed in military lingo so I googled it and stumbled upon your forum. I'm not sure if this is where I need to be, but any help would be greatly appreciated. Pap is very proud of his service and I would like to reunite him with his fellow countrymen if at all possible before it is too late. There are few WWII vets left and I believe their stories should be told. Thank you and God Bless!
