Such unit histories are given in the US Government pub. entitled something like "Order of Battle of ... The Great War," available in those libraries that are Gov. Doc. Repositories. Also, contemporary author Shelby Stanton has published a series of "Orders of Battle" for the various wars up through Viet Nam. In the government publications the information is very basic and not very detailed, and the charts are somewhat difficult to read correctly . BTW, my great uncle, Joseph J. Michael of Baltimore was in the 33rd Engineers, Company C. According to the OOB, his unit was organized at Camp Devers, MA, and moved around camp to camp and fort to fort from MA to MD, PA, VA, to GA, for no apparent reason (other than to keep moving just to keep from being painted), then apparently was shipped to France from the Port of Hoboken, NJ. If I recall correctly, I don't believe that the history of Co. E was much different at first, until they disembarked. After leaving the US, not much detail is given. I am doing all this from memory w/o checking my files. If you wish, I can look up Co. E 33rd Engrs. for you the next time I go to BPL, and send you copies. David Crider Bham.
