photos from WWII
#2

He took his basic training at Fort Sheridan, Illinois.

He served through November, 1945 and was released

at Camp Campbell, Kentucky.

He served in Rhineland, Central Europe.

I wonder when the photos were taken? If during basic training, then the soldiers might have been shipped out to different units as replacement troops. Or did they remain in the same unit?

 

I first checked the ABMC site for soldiers still buried overseas. Here is what they have. Of course, the name recorded on the photos is probably not their full name. So there are other soldiers out there with that name. It would help to know if they all entered service from same State.
