This is to Traci who posted that her grandfather was in HQ&S of the 256th Engineer Combat Battalion. My father was Samuel F Duggan who was the CO of that company. I might have some information re: the 256th that might be helpful to Traci.

Thanks,
Don Duggan

Admin reply: Super! I just wrote to you and sent you her email address.

My Uncle died of wounds on 25May44 with I Co. He was a 2nd LT and my father named me after him. I started researching when I served in the army and he is buried at the Rome/Sicily site. My father new very little and in 1981 he saw his brothers grave stone and placed a wreath every year . I've done a lot of research and I also served in the guard of the 34th. My uncles records were destroyed in the archive fire in St. Louis. I know he went in as private but ended up an 2LT. Is there any way I can find out records that show his rise. He came in with the Ortonvil Mn bunch

Admin reply: Yes, please contact his home state's veteran's admin. Here's the link. This is how I obtained my father's discharge docs.

TO: Ron Day
Hi Ron, Thank you so much for sending your condolences and checking out my dad's website. It was something he put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into! We agree, it was a great tribute to our grandfather. I will copy and send your note to my Uncle David who may have more info for you. All the best to you and your family!

My dad served in the 160th combat engineers Company B.He was hit with a piece of shrapnel on 8/24/1944 and lost the use of his right arm.This website has given me information about the area he was in when this happened. He never talked much about the war when he came home, so I have been trying to find out more about his journey . Anyone with any info feel free to contact.

my sister, Marcia Brown, just signed in. Our father, Harry O. Peterson (Pete) was with Bill Gentry throughout the was. The last time they were together was about 10 years ago when Marcia & I took Dad (from Syr NY) to see Bill & Peter Schmid, who lived nearby - at Bill's house in Yakama Valley; the 3 of them just smiled at one another, overlooking that beautiful countryside - I cry when I think of that moment. I'll try to scan more photos...

Admin reply: Oh how wonderful.I just got a bit misty-eyed myself. Thanks for posting.

To Bill's kids ~ I lost your contact info when my computer crashed. So good to be able to just Google Bill's name and come up with this! Bill, Peter Schmit and my dad, Harry Peterson, were in a tent together for three years. Dad passed several years ago so it's our generation that is left to keep the memories. You Dad's diary is such a treasure. Hope to hear from you.
