Thank you in advance.

My father was in Co. F 117 Infantry. I have always appreciated the wealth of information pertaining to the 30th Infantry Div that you have made available on the internet.

You honor your Division, and do a great service for the veterans and their descendants.

Thank you very much. Brian Liston

Did anybody know my father, Waldo F. Jones, PFC? He was in the 118 FA Batallion, C Battery, as I understand it. He never told his children anything about the war, and now the time for that has passed.

Sincerely,

Gary L. Jones

I have been doing research on my uncle, SSgt La Verne F Lowe, who served in Co E, 119th Inf Reg, 30th Inf Div from approximately 15 Aug 1944 to 23 Nov 1944. His unit was attached to the 2nd Armored Div from 11 Nov 1944 to 28 Nov 1944. Through graves registration records I obtained, my uncle was killed in or near Baesweiler Germany on 23 Nov 1944, Thanksgiving Day. The 2d Armd Div set up its command post in Baesweiler on 24 Nov 1944. My uncle received a Bronze Star and a Purple Heart posthumously, which I have displayed in my dining room. I also have the commendation for his Bronze Star.

He is buried at Margraten Cemetery, and I visited his grave in 1980. I have made contact with the family that has adopted his grave, and will be visiting Margraten and the area again from 12 Aug to 14 Aug of this year, with my family and to visit and thank the adoptive family. I have all letters written home by my uncle during his time in the service, including the ETO. I would be happy to provide further information about my uncle, and would be interested to find anyone or relatives of anyone who may have served in Co E of the 119th at the time my uncle was with that unit.

In one of his letters, he identifies his platoon leader as "Holly", whom he liked and admired,and Mr. Tower told me this man was Harold L. Holycross. This platoon was instrumental in the assault on Seigfreid Line near Rimburg and Ubach between 2 and 5 October 1944 as described in a historical account detailed in either a book about the 30th or the 119th Regimental History, I am not sure.

If you wish to contact me directly, my email address is beattie@bevcomm.net

Can anyone tell me how to find out what company he was in? Died on 12/20/44 in battle but I do not know exactly where (Belgium?), buried at Henri Chappelle. Looked for casualty lists mentioned but was unable to find anything of use. I want to find out about him from time of leaving U.S. to date of death. He was my brother who died months before I was born. Thanks for any info.

anyone knowing him contact me at j3ober@aol.com..Thanks

I believe my uncle Quenton Ridgon may have served with the 30th Infantry Division during WWII. He was wounded in Belgium and sent back to the states. Anyone that may have known him or of him please contact me as I am compiling a record to give to my Aunt. jmathews50@bellsouth.net

I am the grandson of Stokes D. Hooker who was a SGT. in the 30th MP Co. and I wanted to let any of his friends know that he has passed away and his loss is sorely felt. God bless you all and feel free to contact me at bighookers@aol.com
