    Hello everyone, I am the grandson of Caswell Woosley who served in the 563rd. I am looking for any other people who have relatives living for past that also served in this unit. I can share lots of pictures and stories from what I remember my grandfather telling and showing me.

    Welcome to the Forum, WoosleyJC. I encourage you to consider posting your grandfather's stories and photos in the section What Grandad did in the War. Not only is it a good way to preserve and share his memories & service, but it will also increase the likelihood that those who are also looking for family of 563rd vets will find you. Topics with stories and photos get more views and posts by members which, in turn, increases the visibility in internet searches. Let us know if there is anything we can do to help.

    Welcome WoosleyJC. Tommy hit the nail on the head. We enjoy seeing pictures and reading stories. That's in addition to the preservation factor. We look forward to what you have to post.
