My Dad in the Army Corps of Engineers

| Jacksonville, Florida

Was drafted into the US Army, but had gone to Florida to enlist the Navy, only to find his draft number had come up, so wound up in the US Army.

Basic Training was at Camp Wheeler, Georgia. During WWII, was stationed at Ft. Belvoir, Virginia, Ft. Leonard Wood, Missouri, Camp Claiborne, Louisiana.  Trained welders to form machinist companies for the Army Corps of Engineers.  Was given orders overseas several times, and each time they were pulled in order for him to stay behind to help train new machinist companies.

Comments

My dad also was at Ft. Leonard Wood and Camp Claiborne. My mom also worked at Camp Claiborne. I've some pictures of people I believe worked with my mom. I would be interested in seeing a picture of your dad during the 1940s. I'd also be interested in his Unit # within the Army Corps of Engineers. If you have a pix or his unit #, I'll check back here every so often. Thanks. Jo Ann
