John G. Dooley

  • I feel compelled to thank the creators of and researchers for this Website from the bottom of my heart. Like most, my father, Lt. John E. Dooley, said nothing of his WWII experiences as I was growing up. By a quirk of fate, I was able to determine recently that he trained with the 101st Cavalry Regiment (NY), but at some point (probably Feb 1944) deployed to serve in Recon Company for the 701st TD Battalion. In fact, six of the Operations Reports listed on the 701st Web Page were signed by him. I never thought I would find out about his experiences, but thankfully, the information on this Website helps immensely.

  • Does anyone have a roster for Company B of the 602nd? Trying to figure out which Co my grandfather served in. I've found rosters for A compay and C company and he's not listed, but I can't find one for B. Thanks

  • My father, John N. Rimlinger, was a Sgt. for Battalion 817, Company A, Tank Destroyer. He didn't talk much about the war. Once we did get him to talk about it, he cried. What seemed to upset him most was that it was reported "no shots were fired" in Halle, Germany, but Dad said his tank was disabled. Dad died in 2012. We have pictures of him, tanks, and sadly the concentration camp/burial grounds. If anyone happens to have more history/stories on the 817, Co. A, I would love to hear them. I am so glad I came upon this site. It is great and I learned a lot.

  • Hello, gentlemen, i would like to first, in earnest, thank you all for your selflessness and for the many sacrifices you have made to ensure this great nation's freedom and for the great lengths you went to to liberate other nations. We can never repay you for your selfless actions; we can only respect and honor your efforts. May God Bless you all. I am writing in an effort to gain a larger body of information than i currently have of my uncle (Joseph Silva -- 609th TDs), whom i loved dearly and respected without equivocation. I would greatly appreciate any forthcoming information. Thank you so much. Richard Silva Massachusetts
