I am trying to work out what on his uniform in the form of badges (either metal or material), stripes or whatever else would have been worn. This particular uncle was in the Pacific & was training as an air gunner. I have found reference in his War History file that he was granted permission to wear a.g's badge in the May 1944. I gather that that is a half circle with AG in the centre & a wing coming out - sorry if my description isnt accurate in the terminology. Would he also have worn wingsto me look like a double set of wings with something in the middle. I have also seen something described as a propeller badge. This was in material. He ended up as a Flight Sargeant although started off with a title of Aircrafthand Aerodrome Defence Unit. Hoping someone is able to help out here with this query. If someone has a photo that I can look at, it would be muchly appreciated. Barbara D Auckland NZ
I am sorry, Mrs Audrey. I didn't read your first emails carefully enough. I will post the Resnick information on the various boards if you haven't already done so. Sherry
Hello Again-- New Names: Medics Are on the Job Under the capable guidance of Captain Higgins, Transport Surgeon, this twelve man crew, working in 8 hour shifts treat upward of 30 cases per day....Most of the sick bay boys have seen plenty of action as Combat Medics and all are high point men anxiously awaiting termination of this journey to civilian status." [They were] "removed from a previous shipment to insure the health of the group on this boat....Orchids to: Capt. Higgins, Sgt Vincent J. Lavoy and T / 5 Herman R. Hoag (Transportation Medics) and the crew: Sgt Sonnier, T/4 Scott, T / 5 Scott [sic] and Pfcs Stevens, Westerman, Underwood, Stecker, Rankin, Bretz, Allison and to the able assistance of volunteer T / 3 L.A. Frizzi. Around the Deck Miscellany: T/4 Albert Fairchild, Cpl Estill and T/5 Moore, all of the 809 FA Bn (155.Mm Hows) Fairchild told me of seeing an unusual accident involving one of our small liaison planes.----Pfc Jimmie Murchie is a paint color matcher in civilian life.---Pfc Joseph C. Vierra, whose ring name was "Oakland Joey Vierra" was a professional fighter (Featherweight) for 9 years around the Pacific Coast.----The following men of the 759 MP Bn are on board: Pfc Henry Benway, Jimmie Murchie, Andy Shaughnessy, Carl Johnson and Bill Nairy. They saw Anzio at its worst.----The unusual Red, White and Blue patch on the shoulders of Sgt Calvi Ervin, Cpl Adjutor Moreau, T/5 Armand Luba, and Pfc Joe Crockett is the Iceland Base Command. The red is for northern lights, White for snow and blue for the waters of the North Atlantic. Goings On in the Officers Mess: Captain Boltrek is still trying to teach Captain Morton and Lt.

"Beechergums" The editor's "Beecher B Box," located near the Pepsi-Cola machine, has changed its name to "Beechergums. "This brainstorm originated with Lt. Mautz." It is still waiting for your contributions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Explanation: I purchased from ebay several copies of the Beecher Bugle, since Henry Ward Beecher was the founding pastor of my church. But it turned out to be a daily newsletter from the S.S. Henry Ward Beecher, from October 10 to October 17, 1945, as it brought U.S. troops home from Europe after fighting in World War II. It was not a Daily Bulletin; no official announcements. Just things like the movie schedule, the library and barber shop hours, the World Series scores, the fate of various Nazis (Quisling in this first issue). I am posting the soldiers' names and related data, one day at a time. The ship left from Antwerp and went to New York City. Correction: early issues of the Bugle announced that their destination was New York, but they actually arrived in Boston because of congestion in New York due to a longshoreman's strike. I want to donate these newsletters somewhere--any suggestions? Thank you, Edith Bartley edith.bartley@worldnet.att.net
We have lost another wonderful veteran, John C. Hencke, the bow gunner on Battlin Basic, of the famous 44th tank Bn that was attached to the 1st Cav Div. Battlin Basic was the lead tank of the 1st Cav Div 700 man Flying Column as they rolled over and through the iron gates of the infamous Santo Tomas, liberating some 3,700 civilian me, women, and children internees, and the Army nurses known as Angels of Bataan and Corregidor. John Hencke was 89 years old and died at home, in his sleep, on April 3rd, 2006. He was just seen on Oliver North's War Stories, on Fox News, this week. He is interviewed in Lou Gopal's new film, Victims of Circumstance and parts of the film can be seen at www.lougopal.com Sue

Hi James: I viewed your e-mails on photo recon in Germany. The South African Air Force had a unit of Mosquitos based in Italy. A photographer, Julian Ozinsky, who flew on one of these Mosquitos is alive & well here in Sea Point, Cape Town. Julian still works mornings in the business which his son took over from him. The holidays start tomorrow for about the next 2 weeks. If you have lots of questions can you kindly e-mail me with these off list & I'll make arrangements to get these to Julian? Julian can then reply directly to you I believe the rear gun mountings were removed from the aeroplane & the photographer was "based" here with his equipment. I also believe that Julian has a watercolour painting in his home on the Mosquito he flew in (sic?).

I have a photo of a man in uniform and a woman and on the back is the date and the name Mr & Mrs ? Reagan, Blythville, AR. It has the date and complete name on the original - there was a army base at Blythville, AR - so if there are any people who know the name, let me know. I think it was made in the late 1930's delilah
The Wakefield was originally the Manhattan. I am going to let the NARA at Boston (Waltham) check their records for the Boston POE as suggested. Jessie
Hi All: Five days across the Atlantic seems right for a fast liner like the Mauretania or Queen Mary which (who?) did not travel in convoy with slow cargo ships; eg for the Queen Mary in 1942, 11 to 16 May, see: http://troopships.pier90.org/crossings/1942.htm Yours, John Wilson > I remember my brother saying that the Mauretania II used to leave the US and > arrive in Britain in about five and a half days sometimes, in spite af the > fact that she zig-zagged across the Atlantic to dodge the U-Boats and that > was remarkable when you consider she was carrying thousands of troops. She > was so sea-worthy, having great stabilizers both port and starboard beneath > the waterline. >
