Great Site! My Father told me of Gruber,Polk,Hood & France/Germany/Austria experiences('42-'45). He was w/824th. Landed in Marsailles 10/44.1st action in Nancy/Metz. Fierce resistance at Necker(Heilbronn)4/45. Ended in Linz/Innsbrook that summer. The circled star meant overseas deployment on vehicles. I visited France & Germany to see for myself as an adult. These soldiers sacrificed. Horrible situations. They were so young!

I was liberated from Los Banos, along with my father, mother and younger brother, with the help of the 672nd Amphibious Tractor Battalion, on February 23rd, 1945.
I will never forget!

Is 5 the best? If not then 1. At any rate, this site is top notch. Its great! I'm a military historian and am putting together my own data base about WW II with commnaders and staffs,
MOH and DSC recipients, unit citations, campaign participation credits and unit histories. Keep up the good work! I agree with you that these men were and are real heroes and what they did needs to be remembered.
PS I have the book on the 814th. I think I got from Scholar's Bookshelf a few years ago.

Rob, it was great to find your site! I've forwarded info and pictures of my father, Lewis Charles Gibson, Co. A, 825th TD BN. By the way, I'm restoring a 1945 Willys MB with the markings of my Dad's Jeep. I'll be sure to add pictures as the project takes shape.
