Back of card

 

I told everyone at the table about the image of the combat engineer. Informed them about the story of Vince and how this image was an actual combat engineer. For those of you who aren't familiar with that story, you can read about it here:

Doug sent me this letter. along with a few photos. Am sharing the letter and placing the photo of myself, Jane Likam and Doug Wilber on the forum.

 

The letter was from the Eisenhauer's. Doug included a copy for me:

 

 

Doug - Here'a picture of you and Marion and Jane that I took at the Reunion Banquet. Thought you and Marion might like one as a keepsake. It was nice meeting you and very heart-warming observing your keen interest in your Dad's WWII experiences. Marion seemed to have the same enthusiasm for her Dad's experiences also. You two must have much in common.

 

Until later - Syble & Ray

Any knowledge if a member of the 326th was awarded the CIB?
