My Grandfather was KIA July 27, 1944 in France. He was in the 2d Armored Division, 82nd Reconnaissance Battalion. When I started researching a little over a year ago we knew very little about him. We didn't even know his division, birthday, or where he was buried. I have since found his best friend and 2 other men who served with him! I have been very very fortunate. Until I started researching I did not truly appreciate what him and all of the other men had done during the war. I have written a story about him for my family, but I would love to find some way to make sure that my generation and the next does not forget what they did for us.
