Adrienne, The information you have regarding two different units is not conflicting. In fact, transfers of personnel between units was very common. In a previous post I told you that the 320th Engineer Battalion was an organic (permanent) unit of the 95th Infantry Division. The other assignment you mention is the 17th Armored Engineer Battalion, which was organic to the 2nd Armored Division. The question is: In what order was he assigned to them? The following information will help you piece together the puzzle. 95th Infantry Division- Left the U.S. from Boston port of embarkation on August 10th, 1944 and arrived in England August 17th, 1944.( I doubt his trip across took 4 days, the norm was about 7-12 days depending on variables.) The division was transported to and staged in vicinity of Winchester, Hampshire, England until sent to France on Sept. 15th, 1944. Upon arrival the 95th Division was assigned to it's next higher unit (XIII Corps and next higher Ninth U.S. Army). Any station list you should attempt to request will be for 95th division, XIII Corps and U.S. Ninth Army for August 1944 only. The division as a whole was in the vicinity of Winchester but the station list may give you more a specific town or village in which the 320th Engineer Battalion was housed. 2nd Armored Division- Left U.S. from New York port of embarkation on December 11th, 1942 and arrived North Africa on December 25th, 1942 (less a few units that went ashore during the invasion in November). Assaulted island of Sicily on July 10, 1943 and departed November 12th. Arrived in England November 25th, 1943. The 2nd Armored was transported to and staged in the vicinity Tidworth, Wiltshire, England until it was sent to France on June 7-9th, 1944. The station list for August is much tougher because the 2nd Armored was moved from several Corps during this time (VII, XIX, V, XV) but always under U.S. First Army. Again, station lists will possibly give you a more specific town or village which housed the 17th Armored Engineer Battalion near Tidworth. I believe the scenario of him being in the 95th Infantry first and later transferred to the 2nd Armored fits your description better, but I would of course validate it if possible. I hope this helps.
