Subject: my father's regiment

Comments:
How many casualties did the 7th regiment have in the Korean War. My father served in 1950 and 1951... from Pusan to Chosen Reservoir. He had many friends who did not come home. Some he did not see after various battles. He did not know if they were separated or if they did not make it. Is there a list of KIA's from the 7th regiment. He was in the headquarters company for the 7th. He worked with Capt. Olin E. Smith. Thank you for taking the time. I'm returning to Korea to receive an honorary doctoral degree this fall. Will be traveling through parts of Korea in late October.

Even if you have no info that he was ever attached to this unit, please let me know so that I can search elsewhere. Every piece of info is valuable, even if it is not in my favor. Maybe you can give me an idea on where else to search. That unfortunately is all the info I have, except that apparently he is my biological father and time is running out on us both.

Subject: Looking for information -313 Sad Sacks WWII

Comments: My father-in-law served in WWII as a Tec 5. We recently came across a photo album with pictures from the war. (He died in 1989 - never wanted to discuss the war. What a treasure to find this album!!) There are some pictures in it with the sign "313 Sad Sacks" (apparently a reunion once they were back in the states). We also found envelopes from him addressed from the 313th Ordnance Depot Company. We have tried every search engine and cannot turn up the 313th. Thinking this is a part of the 3rd Army??? Pictures show time spent in Belgium, Paris, Italy, and Germany. He did talk of freezing his feet in Italy. He enlisted 7/18/1941. Postcards are dated 9/18/1944. We have sent for his DD2 but are anxious to find out more. Are we on the right track? His name was James Ishmael Dennis.

Subject: Lt. John W. McIntyre

Comments: My father John McIntyre served as a Lt. in World War II. I,m trying to locate which unit he served with. I know he did basic in
in Georgia, officers candidate school in Puerto Rico and shipped out to Europe from Camp Shanks N.Y. He served in France, Holland, Belgium and Germany. During this time he worked in the motor pool and on an anti aircraft gun battery. I recently found pictures of my dad at Berchtesgaden that resembled the scenes from the Band of Brothers at the Eagles Nest. I don't believe he served in the 101st and after reading about the controversy regarding the Steven Ambrose version of the taking of the eagles nest I think that maybe he served in the 3rd infantry.

My dad stayed in Berchtesgaden and was installed as a sort of military "mayor" of the town during the occupation. Like many veterans of that era my dad spoke very little of his time in the service and now that he has passed away most of that information has gone with him. I would like to be able to find out what unit he served with.

Comments: I am searching for anyone who might have info on my grandfather Staff Sergeant Leonard Mann who was from Bloomington, Indiana. He was involved with freeing the concentration camp of Dachau, and was in Munich with Battery C, I believe, and was involved with the taking of Berchtesgaden and Hitler's Eagle's Nest. There was a newspaper article done on this. I want to know if there are any members of his unit still living. I would also like exact information on his unit so that I can try to retrace their steps in the war. I know they got together every year after the war when he was alive. Thanks for any help you may be able to give.
