It was a great surprise when I placed my grandfathers name into a search engine to find out that there's actually a picture of him on the internet. My grandfather was H.V. Combass, Red Batallion, C Company, 2nd Platoon. I never got the please to ever see him in person because he died shortly before the beginning of my existence, so any kind of picture of him is a great thing to see. I was named after this man he was also known as H.V. ''Tommy'' Combass. Thank You for posting the picture. He has four surviving brothers currently as of 17 Dec 04.

Heman S. Blackwell of Saddleback, Maine was my grandfather. His enlistment record and honorable discharge show he was a cook in Co. A, 302 Infantry in France in 1918. He got out early due to some illness and a stay in a hospital in France. Interestingly, he got $93 mustering out pay. I'm sure that was quite a sum in those days. A good website for WW I info on various units is:

Hello erverybody,
nearly sixty years ago (March 28th 1945) first soldiers of the US-Army entered my hometown Idstein. Now I want to know, which unit these soldiers belonged to. I Think these were soldiers of 304th battailon 76th infanty division, but I'm not sure. Is there anybody who can help me ? Who knows a veteran soldier of this battailon ? Thanks for Your help !

My father, Bertram Moje was a sergeant with the 304th Infantry Regiment, Co. B. He lived in NJ, but now lives in California. He is hoping to attend the 2005 reunion. Is there anyone who remembers him?

I would really like to find S/Sgt. John A. Grant or a member of his family. He was in Co.F of the 417th and was good friends with my father S/Sgt. Edward Johnson. Please e-mail me at address shown.
