My Father was in the unit stated above. I am trying to find information on when he was overseas from February 1944 onward.

Hello Cindy,

Was wondering what his full name was, was he married to a Juquiline McGibony. If so found a nice article on him in a newspaper. Just yo let you know the unit he was with is listed as the 401st Field Artillery Group.

Still looking

Thanks,

Elliot Schneider
