  • Unlike my mom (mary) I was able to get my grandpa to talk very little about WWII. But when looking at his medals I was able to get him to open up and tell me what they were for. He told.me how they stormed Normandy and how the Army tried to give him a purple heart when he saved two people from a tank and he told them "Hell no, there are other soliders the deserve better than me". It is nice to learn more of where he was actually stationed over in Europe, also knowing his side of the story makes it that much more complete!

  • Thank you for this web site to give the ones that served a chance to reconized. My dad Cpl. Clifford Jack was an *** man. He never talked about the war or what he seen. After he passed away that is when I found out about a diary he wrote about his time in the war. It opened up my eyes and after reading it I wanted to know more but he was no longer here. So thank you for answering some of the questions not only me but other people may want to know about there loved one's who have served our country. So thank you to my husband Mel Kilgore for finding out about this web site and getting his name out there. For also digging up and searching all the information.

Kevin Leddy

  • My Dad was Clarence T. Leddy, who served in the 819th Recog. Unit in WWII in Palau. He would never discuss with me his time in the war prior to his passing in 1982 at age 60, so it has been very interesting to discover the history of the unit via this web site. I spoke by telephone just yesterday with Richard A. Scalise, who served in the unit with my Dad. I would welcome any contact from anyone who would have know/remembers my Dad. I can never fully express the gratitude and appreciation to all who served with him...
