Was searching the internet for my father-in-law who was a member of 294th Engineer Combat Battalion during WWII and found your web site. I've heard the story of the training accident many times. I believe my father-in-law was in A Company. While he was not in the immediate area of the blast he was at the scene of the accident shortly after it occured.
If you have additional information on the 294th I would like to share it with my father-in-law. I'm sure he would be glad to share his experiences with you.
Regards,
Bob Christianson
