Dear Mr. Cizewski,
Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
We searched the World War II Operations Reports, 1940-1948 in the Records of the Adjutant General's Office, 1905-1981 (Record Group 407) and located records for the 180th Infantry Regiment, 45th Infantry Division. While we were unable to locate a file specifically for the anti-tank company, there may be information about the company in the files for the regiment as a whole. For access to these records, please contact the National Archives at College Park - Textual Reference (RDT2) via email at archives2reference@nara.gov.
We also searched online and located a regimental history for the 180th Infantry Regiment which includes some information about the Anti-Tank Company.
We hope this information is helpful. Best of luck with your research!

Re: Seeking after action reports & histories of 180th Infantry Regiment
Hi Jason,
Thank you.
The regimental history for the 180th Infantry Regimen .to which you referred us included a roster of the Anti-Tank Company along with photos and clippings from hometown newspapers.
The roster included the great-grandfather of the person with whom I am working. He served in the Anti-Tank Company's 1st Platoon which is new information.
Unfortunately, he missed "photo day" and was not in the 1st Platoon's photo.
I have sent this to the family.
