There are four overseas bars.

Should I assume the 997th was attached to different units of the 3rd Army as needed? Are there sources I could research to find these attachments? There doesn't seem to be much online.

All the information is making sense so far except for the stories about hauling supplies. I read somewhere that the Red Ball Express pulled guys from all kinds of units to get the supplies moving. Is it likely that he may have done that?

I find the fact that he was assigned to an artillery unit mind boggling because I was in a National Gaurd Artillery unit for several years and he never told me he was in an artillary unit.

So you guys think he would have been with the 997th the whole time he was overseas?

Hey Marne. Is that a real gun? Do you sleep in those tents. You gonna really eat that?
