My dad Frederic Knilans served in the 671st Tank Destroyer Battalion and I am trying to see if there are any living members that I might be able to contact. My dad has been gone since 1981 and I just recently found which unit he served in.

Capt. Gerald B. Kirkpatrick was my father. My brothers and I will be happy to give you more information about him to put on your website. My father died on Veteran's Day (Nov. 11), 2004. He was a wonderful and caring man, and a hero in our eyes.

I loved the story with Christopher S. Blake, he is a beautiful human being and there is so much more that was not mentioned. Chris also wrote a cookbook "Cooking with and for Alcoholics" . I love Christopher.

I would like to thank my brother Philip for taking the time to research my grandfather Leonard J. Boteler. Growing up as an army brat, I never really had the opportunity to really get to know him. This brings me insight into who he was. Thanks again lil bro.

I would like to thank my son Philip for the effort he has put into this. My father loved the military and being a part of WWII and Korea. Knowing where his regiment traveled in Europe,Japan and Korea gives me more of an understanding of the person he must have been to have survived these wars.
Thank you philip,
Love you, Mom

It is important that we never forget the courage, strength and sacrifice those have made before us to ensure we can live free as Americans. This website plays an important role in helping achieve remembrance of these great men and women. I didn't know my grandfather, Leonard J. Boteler that well due to my father being a soldier and our family constantly moving around the world. Once I was able to spend more time with him it was cut short due to his passing. This website helps me put not just a face to the man I didn't know, but character, reason, and understanding as well. Let us also not forget the wives and husbands of these soldiers for their sacrifices made here at home.
Thank you Rob for all your help!
God Bless!
