Kind of going back to basics with collection Pacific war has always been my thing !! Traded up for this one !

Mexican American from Hondo Tx Also lived in Saginaw Mi

 

From my early research Emigrated to the US from Mexico as a child lived in Hondo Tx . Was married and lived in Saginaw MI

I believe he right after his divorce enlisted and went to Navigator school at Rio Hondo TX about 1943 apparently not making the cut as a navigator

this is where I lose him not sure how he ended up as a PFC in 130th but I presume as a replacement right before deployment to Luzon.

 

On Feb 19 1945 took part in Attack on Caraballo Mountains Luzon
