Hello and welcome to our forum.
The flag is simply grand. What a great acquisition!
If you go to the forum home page, look at the upper right hand corner, and simply type 133rd into the search box. This will bring up a list of topics involving the 133rd!

Dear Leroy Hezemans, My father was a member of the 133rd. His signature appears in your photograph: David A. Aho. It was quite emotional to see it there. You may be interested to know that I am currently working on a research project ( I am an artist) about the 133rd and various events they were involved with in WW2. I can fill you in on everything you would like to know when we have made contact. I may even be able to pinpoint the location of the battalion on the date you have for the capture of the flag as I now have copies of all the operational reports. Please, when you have a chance, tell me where you are located and anything additional you might know about the flag and how it was obtained by the 133rd. I will eagerly look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Eric Aho, Saxtons River, Vermont, USA by Facebook or (Marion's note, removed your email for privacy sake - please use personal messaging)

Eric: How exciting. I CAN imagine how you felt when you saw your father's name on that flag! Can't wait for you and Leroy to be able to talk to each other!
Oh I would highly recommend that you not personally post your email address here or anywhere else, for it's too easy for hackers and bots to get a hold of it. I try to go through the forum and delete any email addresses I find, as a favor to my members.
