One of many who brought the ultimate sacrifice 😞 He was KIA 20 March 1945, only days before the fighting days for the 94th Infantry Division would be over. He was a member of 94th Infantry Division Recon Troop. On 19 March, the Recon Troop was ordered to move to the division front and reconnoiter the routes of advance of the two leading combat teams, plus maintain a connection betweeen all advancing units. By 0900, 21 March 1945, the Recon Troop was at the banks of the Rhine River. During the drive spearheading the assault on Ludwigshafen, your uncle brought the ultimate sacrifice. I'd be interested in learning if there are still photos or documents in the family? Let me know! Let us never forget these men!
