Hi,

You would probably have better luck if you put up an entirely new message with a title that has your name and the year you were there and your unit. That way people will see it easily and you'll have better luck finding your buddies. Good luck and thank you for your service.

Thanks for posting this. I lost my father in 1999. He was 161st Infantry and served in every campaign your father did. My father, Leo J. Schmidt was seriously wounded on Jan 25, 1945 in the battle for San Manuel, Luzon.

I suggest you look for a book called "Across The Dark Islands" by Floyd Radike. Amazon should have it. I got mine at Borders. It will give you an even better idea what your dad went through.

Stay in touch with us and share any info you have.

P.S. I live in Redmond, WA about 15 miles north of Kent (where I went to school for a while). Nearby is Tahoma Memorial Cemetery where my Father and Uncle were laid to rest. Maybe Stephen should visit the cemetery — it's quite nice.
