Stanton shows the 72nd received campaign credit for Ardennes-Alsace Campaign, 16 Dec 44-25 Jan 44. Can't get any more Bulge than that. If that's...
Not much help for someone looking for a book with '1942-45' in title to send them a link to a book on a WWI unit. Unless there's a prize for...
He checked in two hours after I took 5 minutes to do a look-'em-up to correct his misstatement of the unit ID. He couldn't be bothered to...
Deleted. Go fish.
Unfortunately, calculating odds requires having two numbers. You don't have either a numerator or a denominator. Short of stumbling upon a...
There are examples from the ETO wherein members of Service Co and Cannon Co in an infantry regiment received the CIB. 'Infantryman' is too general...
It's vT.
A textbook example of how to conduct basic research though NARA. Nicely done and well explained.
For those with a clue (as is the case with the OP), 106th Infantry refers to an infantry regiment, not a division. In April, 1945, the 106th...
In case you might not already know, the 383rd served in the ETO. Can't tell you when they got there. I would email USAHEC in Carlisle, PA and ask...
Flyers travel in seats, not crates.

Branch of service, not specific type of unit. There were more than 50 different U.S. Army engineer unit T/O&Es in WWII, only 3 of which had...
Once again, the only possible way to avoid idle speculation is to get the morning reports or the service record. How could anyone here know if he...
The Jul 44 edition of T/O&E 1-117, AAF Bombardment Squadron, Heavy, shows 2 SSN809, a sgt and a corp. Among a list of chemical warfare equipment,...
Try USAMHI in Carlisle, PA. They will usually send a brief unit organizational history and itinerary for WWII combat units as a freebie. Good luck.
Funny, this feller (who cites an "actual source") seems to think Churchill's speech was in January. I have found it helpful in establishing my own...
A 15 minute video contains about the same number of words as four pages of text. Videos are for those who would never pick up a book.
If you don't already have it, there is a division history published in 1946, authored by Theodore Draper.
Not enough detail to even make a guess. Logically, you have to go from the last date you are certain of (not just 'believe') what unit he was...
