My uncle was killed near Foret de Mont Castre on July 12, 1944. Since the 90th Division was there that day, I'm wondering if you could tell me if my uncle was in that division as I do not have any information re his unit but I do know he was buried at St. Mere Eglise Cemetery #2 that day or later. He was from Chicago, IL, born 7/25/17.

Any information you could give me would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerelly,

I am a history teacher at Duffryn High School, Newport South Wales. I believe that your division was stationed at a base near Tredegar House before departing for Normandy. Our school is built on the site on the base, and I am trying to gather together resources to introduce a study unit on this interesting but rather hidden part of our history. Is there anyone out there who can help me please? I would be grateful for anything at all.

My name is Pete Bracco. My father, Mike Bracco, was a rifleman with A Company 357th Regiment from Feb 25, 1945 to Apr 26, 1946. He passed away in 1975 leaving behind a tremendous legacy of service along with a loving wife and 10 kids. As with many vets, he spoke very little of his time in service. We would be interested in hearing from anyone who remembered Mike. From Chicago, he serviced out of Camp Crowder MO and separated from Camp McCoy, WI. Mike finished up in theater as the Message Center Clerk.
Thank you all, Tough 'Ombres, your courage is not forgotten.

My name is Matthew Kime. I am a 30 year old CPT in the US Army at Ft Huachuca, Arizona. I am writing a book about the US Army liberation of Czechoslovakia. I am interested in talking to veterans who were there. I am also interested in copies of photos of Czechoslovakia during that time frame.

My interest in this project stems back to childhood. I am from Cedar Rapids, Iowa. My neighbor was Fred Nordgren of the 357th Infantry. He told me stories about the liberation. He passed away in 2002. I recently served 6 years in Germany and the Czech Republic where I visited the Zhuri battlefield. I speak Czech as well and have traveled the Czech Republic extensively. Currently I am in correspondence with veterans from the 16th and 8th Armored Divisions and the 94th Division. I have spoken to Czechs as well as German veterans. I would love to hear from the 90th. This project is dear to my heart. I am married to a Czech girl and we have an 8 month old Czech-American son. I wish to preserve the story of Czechoslovakia's liberation for a new generation of Americans and Czechs and honor the memory of my long-time friend and neighbor, Fred Nordgren. I appreciate your support. Tough Hombres!

I am the eldest grandson of Robert Taylor Reichenbach, called "Rick" by some of his army buddies. My grandfather was raised in Collingdale, Pennsylvania, and was stationed for a number of years at the Field Artillery Replacement Training Center at Fort Bragg, NC. In 1944 he served in the 90th, I believe as a truck mechanic and driver under general Omar Bradley.

I have a number of things, including a book about the 90th infantry division with a painted leather cover, leading me to hope somebody in the 90th may know of him.

I would deeply appreciate the opportunity to talk with anybody who may have known my grandfather, so I might find out more about his time in the US Army.



thanks,

I am looking for information on the War service of Marion Sanford "Sandy" Gatlin. He was private, probably a motor pool mechanic. I do not know unit, just that it was a part of the 90th Infantry Division. He was from Covington, Tennessee. He would have been about 27 years old as he crossed Europe with the 90th. He did have a problem with shin splints and was hospitalized at least once.

I'm looking for anyone who remembers my father, James Maddi, who I believe served in the 357th regiment of the 90th. He came from Jersey City, NJ.

When doing some family genealogical research, I discovered that my father was captured in Germany on February 8, 1945. My father was never very talkative about his war experiences when I was a child. I do remember looking at the contents of a strong box full of his army mementos that included information about his POW status.

My father is now 86 and lives with my sister in Pennsylvania, but his memory is not that good any more. Please contact me if you remember him. My genealogical research has made more appreciative of what those who came before me have done and gone through, so I would like to know more about my father's service to the nation during war.
