I am a retired army reservist but I spent 7 of my 21 years in a 28th division unit (Pa Army national Guard): 1st battalion 103rd armored regiment which in WW2 was the 628th TD BN. I was also at one time president of the National Guard Armor Reunion Association which was the associated organization for the 628th TD BN, 628th Tank BN, 1/103rd Armor but the NGARA doesn't exist anymore. I wanted to know more about TD as I found out my former unit was attached to the 5th Armored Division during the entire WW2. Though I am actually a Quartermaster Corps soldier I loved being in an armored unit and especially it was a TD unit at one time. Thank You and God Bless. V/R SSG Kraig Morris USAR,Ret.

My uncle, Frank L. Calvaruso, was a TEC-5 with the 667th Tank Destroyer Battalion. I know your pages state that the unit was de-activated and did not serve oversees, he did. On his Enlisted Record And Report Of Seperation Honorable Discharge, his Organization is listed as 667th Tank Destroyer Battalion. He was a Supply NCO 821. He served in Europe from May 6, 1945 until March 26, 1946. He was credited as having served in the Battles and Campaigns as Rhineland. He Received the American Theater Ribbon, EAME Theater Ribbon W/1 Bronze Stars, Good Conduct Medal, Victory Medal World War II, Lapel Button Issued, and was a TSMG Expert and Rifle Expert. I have no idea if he served in another Battalion or Organization, but I know he was proud of being in the Tank Destroyers. My uncle died unmarried and childless in 1979. I love him and consider him to be one of my best friends. I do not want his service to his country to ever be forgotten.

I am the son of Henry Baltz, Jr (page 84 of the 774th TD History). I remember reading the history of the 774th as a child. Thanks for scanning the book onto the internet.

Thanks for publishing this - DE Bruner, Jr was my Great Uncle. I really enjoyed reading about him and his accomplishments. I did not know him personally - the only siblings of my grandfather that I know personally are Charlie, Edna and Gerald. Fantastic family - of course, I have a biased opinion... ;) Best, -Chris Bruner (son of Randall("Pete"), grandson of Donald)

Thanks for doing this site. My gradfather was Charlie W. Worrill. He was in Company "B" 813th. I would love to learn as much as I can about the company.

Looking for information on Tech4th Grade Joseph J. Battista,Service Number 33015030, 13th Class OCS. He was commissioned in 1943. Thank you - Charles Thorne

My father Johnnie Dotson served with the 894 th Tank Destroyer Battallion in WWII. He was born June 20,1920 and passed away on December 20,1995. He attended reunions in Nashville,Kansas City, and Orlando. I had the honor of meeting several of his fellow comrades and listened as they relived campaigns in Anzio,Rome,Palermo,Salerno,Tunisia, and North Africa. They laughed and cried. What a true blessing it was to hear these brave men reminisce about their experiences. My Father was honored to be part of this brave and elite group of men of the 894th and I know he would want me to express our deepest sympathies to those family members who have lost loved ones who were members of the 894th.We wish you all a Merry Christmas and May God truly bless each and every one of you.

I think this site is the greatest. I have been looking for all and any information about my father and Manderville H Paine. I belive he was in HHC. I would love any info again thanks
