Hi everyone!
I am currently going down the rabbit hole of what my grandfather did in WWII, but I am struggling to find anything on what his regiment/battalion were. Before all of this, I only knew he was in the army and was in Germany at some point. Since I’ve started this research: I was able to find just a bit more, but not much.
He was in Battery C of the 798th Anti-Aircraft Artillery Automatic Weapons Battalion from 1944 to Sept. of 1945.
There isn’t much that I’ve found online except for three men (one of which was in the same BTRY) that were unfortunately killed or died in Europe. And I also found an award/decoration form with his regiment listed for their help with the “Germany Campaign”.
If anyone has any information regarding the 798th AAA AW BN, I would greatly appreciate it! I’d like to know where he was in Europe (aside from just generic Germany — if possible!) and what exactly they did.
Thanks in advance! Again, I appreciate anything!
