A hearty welcome Mike. Always happy to see another son or daughter of a VI Corps Engineer.
Are you in contact with any other member's families? Let me know. I'll be happy to hook you up with everyone else.
Hoping to see your dad's story here on our site someday soon.
Oh, I do have to tell you that the 36th CE weren't at Normandy however. They were in France but took the southern invasion route, heading north, then took part in the Alsace/Ardennes Campaign (Battle of the Bulge) then made their way across the Rhine into the German heartland.
