      Search up 318th engineers in the search part of the forum, there is one other group to a sergeant (in I believe B Co.) comes with his photo, as well as his uniform + a yard long photo of some men from his company in France. And they also had a unit newspaper called “the sapper” has unit info, Roster, and a list of places they had been. Definetly not the most popular or exciting unit by any means. But definitely still interesting as well as with all the older men called up to ho overseas. Hopefully you can find some things on your great grandfather. Thanks for commenting and good Luck finding some info, it‘s scarce but it’s out there!

      A soft bristle brush that is brushed counter clockwise. And totally optional step (used mostly for silk top hats and those delicate goods) is to use a velvet polishing pad.   Just whatever you do don’t use a lint roller, the residue will gunk up the hat in the long run.

      Great find! I've been researching the 318th as well. My 2nd great grandfather served in Company B. He was gassed during an engagement, survived the war, returned home and in typical North Eastern Pennsylvania fashion returned to the coal mines where his already damaged lungs couldn't handle the coal dust a little later down the road and he passed at only 45 in 1939. Unfortunately I have nothing of him. No photos or anything from family members. Trying to find photos of the regiment and company.

      What an amazing find! Do you have any information on the pilot - logbook, book, articles...?

      Hello, this is an amazing collection. I'm writing about the March 18, 1944, mission in which Magnuson was shot down. Is the picture of the B-17 with "sad sack" from the collection, and is the jacket on display somewhere, or is it part of your collection?  This is great memorabilia.    Jim

      Hey! If you are interested in letting it go I’d be interested! I collect these. I’ll pay good for it

      Who knew there were variations in a headlight bracket. The knowledge from all of you never ceases to amaze me.  I assume the "tombstone" and "horseshoe" variations are named because of the shape of the bracket?    ....Kat
