Winston Boudreaux

  • Dear Sir or Madam, My father Jack Boudreaux (1919-1995)served in the 808th Tank Destroyer Battalion. I have approximately 90 photos (almost all unidentified) that was taken in Austria and probably Germany. Dad didn't take the photos himself. One of his friends mailed them to him after the war. Would you be interested in posting them on your site? Perhaps a vet or a relative of one might be able to have a pic of their ancestor. They are all originals but I would be willing to scan them a few at a time and upload directly to your site or to your email address.

Sam Hoynes

  • I am with the Commemorative Air Force in Houston Texas. We have a small fairly complete WWII museum and one of our items is a tablecloth carried by a red cross volunteer who had it signed by personnel in units she served with. The last unit she was with was the 802nd Tank Destroyer Battalion, from the Battle of the Bulge and for 6 months in Germany with occupation troops, including the 802nd. There are over 63 signatures on the table cloth including Monk Montgomery, Ed Hertel, William Meara, and others. I am trying to find any members of the 802nd that might remember Virginia "Ginny" Rado and her Red Cross units. I have a partial copy of the Apple Knocker, talking about opening a club for occupation troops. Any information for my museums display would be appreciated. I can also send copies of the Apple Knocker if anyone would like them.
