My dad was in the 995th FA BN, as a FA radio opeator.

He fought in the campaigns in the Ardennes, Central Europe, Naples-Foggis, Rhineland, and Rome-Arno.

BTW all with the wrong blood type listed on his dog-tag. When he came home and married my mom, he got back the blood test. He did not have type O, but A+.

I am curious if he gets into any of the footage since he was standing by one of the photographers as Monte Cassino was being bombed.

He died when he was 55, the age I will be in less than one month.

My dad was only 66. Our birthdays were 6 months apart (mine December 29th, his, June 29th). He passed away on January 29th, 1997.

He had a brother who died when he and mom got married, who was only 21. Seven years later, they gave their first born his brother's first name.

So far, I've more than doubled my namesake's age (48), and I have no intentions of stopping!

That would be wonderful. Please look for him.
