E-mail: Marinesurveyllc@charter.net 		My father was Sgt Allen H. Douglas, 517th 43' - '45.

He passed a young man of 53 in Dec. 1977. I regret I never learned much about his service, he never spoke about it.

Name: Johnny Privott
From: Chesapeake Va
E-mail: Badazz596th@aol.com 		My grandfather was Raymond Doane of the 596th 1st platoon . He was a childhood friend of Maurice White , medic 517th. They enlisted and went to basic and jump school together. Maurice was ruptured in jump school and after surgery returned to the 517th , granddad went to the 596th. Granddad worked for Texaco for 34 yrs . Maurice stayed in the army and retired from the 82nd. They spent there last 15 years or so paling around , drinking and fishing. Maurice White passed away Dec 12th 1991 and Raymond Doane passed away on Dec 13TH 1991. That’s what you call sticking together now. Are families buried them both one day apart so all could attend. Being the only grandson of a only daughter, I was very close to my granddaddy. I heard many stories about Italy, the Jump in Southern France , the Alps and the Bulge. Also buddies like Bartholomew, Christian. Cochran, and Longstreth. I found a picture of them in Nice on a bench in the 517th prct.org documents 596th_newsletters/ Wings_Fall_1995.PDF . My grandmother has a German wallet full of pictures I am going to retrieve. It’s maybe 200 pictures of you guys with names on the back of every one of them. I even got a picture of moses takin a c*** if I can find it . Lol. All of the men in the 517th and the 509th will always be my life long Heroes even more so as the years go by. I would like to hear from any troopers or family members for the 517th especially 596th 1st platoon that was attached to the 509th

E-mail: tyenokida@gmail.com 		My grandfather's name is Eugene "Chop Chop' Mars. I wanted to inform you that he passed away at his home on October 2nd. I know that you were a very important part of his life, though he was not able to participate with you for the last several years. He would tell stories about his time in the Army and I know that he considered you his family as well.
