I am looking for any information about the history of the 90th regarding the area of SOUTHERN THURINGIA, county of SAALFELD,
a region where mountains are covered with black stones from the slate mines.I am desperately looking for veterans who have been in that area or for any material (pictures, notes) which they might have left to someone. IG Farben had started to built an underground fuel production site in Unterlockwitz. The slate mine in Unterlockwitz was than guarded and closed for public. US military searched the mine for 4 weeks but NARA does not have any documentation. Also IG Farben had hidden 50 boxes with secret papers (also other content?) in the mine and it remains unclear what happend to them. Where are there no records or why are they not available in US archives? Any help about that subject is highly appreciated.
thanks
Henry

I am looking for any available information about my friend, Jack (John) McKenna, hometown Seattle WA, infantryman in the 76th Division, killed in Europe in 1944, He attended one year at Harvard Univ. then in ASTP and from there to the 76th. I do not know his unit or circumstances of his death. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who knew him, or suggestions on where to search.

My Father (Charles B. Schatz, SR) belonged to the 417th reg. Company I, 76th Infantry Division. My Dad passed away in June, 1994. He was very proud of his service during the War and passed on his experiences to me, his oldest son. He landed in Le Havre, France in Jan, 1945. I believe his unit fought in Luxembourg and crossed the Rhine between Boppard & St Goar. He was almost killed on Good Friday during a skirmish in the town of Schmitten. I think his unit was fighting SS Cadets. He remembers helping to liberate a Concentration Camp somewhere in Eastern Germany. He took a Swastika Souvenier off a house in Liepzig and then headed south ending up on VE Day in Chemnitz, Czechoslovakia. Several years before his death I had the pleasure of going with him to the National Archives Library in Washington DC to retrace his units path thru Europe. It brought back many memories for him. Like most WW II Vets he played down what he had done in the War, but to me he was,as are all Vets my Heros.
