Donna Warren Hickey

  • My father, Robert M. Warren, was a member of the 692nd Tank Destroyer Battalion C Company. I have his discharge papers and other memorabilia, including a map detailing the route from Belgium through Germany from October 1944 - May 1945. On the back of the map, the "unforgettables" were also referred to as "Chico warriors." Donna Warren Hickey

  • I enjoyed your site. I never knew until very recently what unit my Uncle Raymond Colvin served in and reading all of these stories of all these brave men and their sacrifices has moved me to tears many times tonight. Thanks for having this site.

Teddi Ashby

  • I am the daughter of Aubrey C Ashby who was with the 795th Tank Destroyer Unit. I have posted his photo on facebook and you are welcome to add to your site. I have most of his original service papers, transfers, training and promotions.

Tamara Cherry Eaton

  • My father, Jess E. Cherry, was in the 811th, Headquarters Co., Staff Platoon. He passed away in 1983. He didn't speak of the war, but talked endlessly about the friends he made while in the service. God Bless all of our veterans and the ones still serving.

  • My father-in-law, Wilford Green, was in the 817 TD Battalion, Recon, Pioneer Platoon. I have been looking at your web page today for the first time. You have posted a picture of HQ Company. Among the paperwork of Wilford I have a listing of all the individuals in the picture. Would that be of any value to you in identifying individuals? Wilford is still alive and living in our home in Sandy, Utah.

  • My father, Robert R. Ford (known as Henry) was a Tech-5 Tank Mechanic in the 809th. I have his Honorable Discharge papers, and a picture of the 809th Battalion he served with (Dec, 42 - Oct, 45). Sadly, I'm ashamed to say I don't know a lot more than that about his service. He didn't talk about it. We nearly always attended the Reunions, and he remained close to his Sgt, Ray Osborne, from Nashville, TN for the duration of their lives. The few stories I remember were told by Ray. I appreciate the opportunity to remember and honor my father, of whom I am so very proud! Thank you.

Angela Miller

  • My Grandfather, Lee Royce Miller, served in the 809th Tank Destroyer Battalion. He passed away in 1988--and I was too young at the time to truly appreciate his experience or find out more about it. I am so in awe of him and all of our military. Thank you for this site. It gives me a chance to learn more about his experience and to share that information with the rest of my family.

  • I am the second grandchild of Joseph E. Johnson, who served in WWII. As a child, my family attended the 630th TDB reunions annually. My Grandfather fought along side Mr. Oscar Summers, who ended up being one of his lifelong friends.
