Hi, I'm looking for information about the 738th medium tank battalion, particularly where they were stationed in the uk prior to going to Europe. I've done a Google search and found a few bits and pieces about them being in pembrokeshire but would like more solid evidence. If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be great! Also a long shot, but does anyone have a copy of the book written by John k brier 'one special tank battalion 738th medium tank battalion (special). It's out of print and the only copies available are in libraries in the US. Many thanks!
I tried google and found the following:- This was on Military.com http://www.military.com/HomePage/UnitPageFullText/1,13476,704115,00.html http://www.yeide.net/World_War_II_History/ETO_Tank_Bn_Histories.html says After action report, 738th Medium Tank Battalion, February-April 1945 http://cgsc.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/ref/collection/p4013coll8/id/3599
Hello, I am researching my grandfathers movements with the 738th. Is there a possibility that you would be willing to share any of the information you found in you search.
