Doing research...

 

 

Are you planing any info on the 247th my late father served in the engineering group.

Well I did find a page for the group, but there's nothing but a home page without any links. Hopefully this is going to become a viable, working site!? Looks like there is an email link in the upper right-hand corner, though.

In the book (which I have), there is mention of this unit on pages 41-43. First Across the Rhine - Colonel Pergrin.
