E-mail: moshe1652@aol.com 		Raymond E. Markley was my father. I was re-reading his WWII journals today and decided to see what i could find out about his unit, the 517th. I am proud that he is my father and proud that he fought with men as honorable as those of the 517th airborne.

Name: Chris Walters
From: Dallas, TX
E-mail: cwchrisw@hotmail.com 		My grandfather, Virgil Frances Dunleavy (sometimes misspelled Donleavy), was in the 517th PICT. He is listed in the 1944 Christmas roster as a Corporal. There is also a photo of him in the book Battling Buzzards. He is smoking a cigarette right before a jump. This is where his name is misspelled. There are also photos of him that Joseph Brody's son submitted.
Virgil passed away in 1970 at the young age of 50. I was 13 at the time. I do have his Purple Heart. I am looking for any information on him. I will be at the mini reunion in Florida in January. My mother, his daughter, will be with me.
