If anyone knows how I could contact the family members of theses individuals, please email me; I am sure that they'd be delighted to see their old man when he was a young man!

The following is a list of handful of the soldiers that fought alongside my dad during the his campaign from Dec 1944 - OCtober 1945. This is not an exhaustive list of the battalion by any means, but is purely a listing of the men, in order of appearance (as they in the movies), column by column in the slide show, ranging from privates to colonels, and a few civilians. Some only have their last name list, some only their first, or nickname, or their type of duty, such as "medic Williams". Then there's "Spaghetti"!
