Any info as to battle records for June - August 1944 would be helpful. Looking for info regarding my uncle, Warren Lodge Parker, who was wounded in action and paralyzed.
Tony, I have a photo of the 119th Co. A. I'm not sure if it was taken before or after he was wounded. Please email me so I may foward it to you. Is your uncle still alive?

Just emailed you, thanks!
No, he's no longer living. But he lived while he was alive! He never let the fact that he couldn't walk slow him down.
I never understood why he seldom talked about his service. After reading some of the stories the Division went through, it's no wonder.
Looking for info on my great-uncle PFC Everett O. Graves KIA on/about 31 JULY 1944. I'm an active duty Army First Sergeant trying to trace some of my family history and would appreciated any help. Not sure what company he was in. Thanks.
Glenn C bosman died on or about 13 Dec 1945. Is there anyone out there whom knows the circumstances leading to his death. I am his second cousin JE Davis. Any help will be appreciated. This info is for our family tree.

Tony,
My Uncle fought with the 30th Infantry Division. He bought a book after the war which gives a History of the 30th. The book title is:
Work Horse of the Western Front, the story of the 30th Infantry Division. On the inside cover is the battle route of the 30th.
I'll be happy to make a copy of the map for you.

Oh, a map would be great! I sure would appreciate a copy, Michelle! - Tony
