I miss schweinfurt like crazy sometimes. A great place to be when I was single. Even moved back for a bit when I ETSd.

Retired after 21 years of Army life, and working for the last eight as an Army civilian employee.

I came out of boot camp as an e3 cause I was into it, and out of aviation structural mechanic school as an e4 cause I was into it. Just to make coffee and occasionally gas up some old 4 prop cargo planes.

So once my hitch was up I used the GI bill to get a degree in electrical engineering and I have been supporting the defense industry ever since, 33 years and counting. It's been a great ride, and I would do it over again and again.

Question for those who know a lot more about this than I. I am trying to get info on Army sites with no luck. I am looking for any suggestions on where to go on the net when all I have is a name and KIA in France a month or so after D Day. Thanks

Found my mother's big brother with just an hour or so search on this web site.

All I had was Belgium, Feb 45 - and his full name.
