Subject: SGM Edward Cooper
Comments:
I am a 1980 graduate of Lanier (Central) High School in Macon Georgia. Lanier
had one of the nations largest US Army Junior ROTC programs in the nation. One
of our Army Instructors was Sergeant Major Edward Cooper, USA Ret. SGM Cooper
was a senior instructor at Lanier from approximately 1970 into the mid 1980's.
SGM Cooper was the rifle marksmanship team instructor, of which I was a
member.
SGM Cooper was a World War II veteran with the 3rd Infantry, I believe having
served in Italy (I think) and Europe. He was obviously a combat veteran as he
did have his Combat Infantryman's Badge. Unfortunately SGM Cooper was killed
in an auto accident in Macon GA in the mid 1980's.
Alumni from our school from 1966 through 1986 are putting together a Super
Reunion this year, including a web page honoring our instructors as well as an
event this July. We would of course like to give SGM Cooper the respect he
deserved for serving not only his country but the hundreds of JROTC cadets
over the years he was at Lanier.
We have no information on his service record with the 3rd, and am hereby
requesting any information possible for our project. Please let us know if you
can assist. Thank you in advance for your time and cooperation.

Comments: I am sending you this email in the hope that you or your

member who was a member of the 3rd Infantry Division in Germany during WW II.
I believe all they have is his name, SSN and a recollection that he was
officer rank decorated for bravery.
Any suggestions on how to proceed with this search will be appreciated.
Here is the information the nephew provided. I agree with you opinion on SSN's
but this one is unique and I thought it might increase our chances.
Apparently, years ago, SSN's were in a different format, you may have known
this but I sure did not. So here is the information:
Name: Harold Homer Horne (deceased)
SSN: 0013-22-922
Born: Berlin NH, DOB unknown
First Lieutenant
Enlisted 1942
Training at Fort Bragg

Comments:
Hello. About a year ago I was looking for information about my grandfather. I
received some help and I was very grateful. But now when I try to find
information on the Area he fought I have trouble finding substantial
information. So I have decided to write a book someday about the campaign.
What I am asking for is anybody with a story, information, good books to
research or anything that would be relevant to the fight around the Colmar
pocket. If you would I would be grateful. Also if anybody knows where Where I
can find any information on the 3rd Army veterans association so I can expand
my search would be helpful. An finally, If anybody has information about L
Lee. Thompson, I would be also grateful. He served in CO K, 30th Infantry
Regiment and was wounded at the Colmar Pocket on JAN 23,1945. I believe I have
asked for information from here before but I'm hoping somebody who didn't it
would know anything. Thank you all very much for your help.
