All,

I know there are a few vets of the 3rd Infantry Division on here, but I don't know what regiments they were with. I would love to talk with a few on here. (About this and a few other things)

I have been trying to find out what company Captain Richard Paul Dorrough served in. I know he was with the 15th, he was battlefield commissioned, he served from the first waves of N. Africa to VE Day. I have most of his war items, no pictures though. :(

Thought I may get lucky and one may have known him or known of him. Never hurts to try, right?

Captain Richard Paul Dorrough commanded Company G, 2nd battalion, 15th Inf. at the time of battles in the Vosges.

just google search "Captain Richard Paul Dorrough" you get several hits.

Thanks for the info, I am guessing your talking about this; http://www.ranger95....osges_part2.htm It is listed as Richard B. Dorrough. Guess its a typo.
