I have just learned that my uncle Jim Wildman was in the 517. I have a strong desire to learn more about Jim and his time in Europe. If anyone has information or questions about Jim and his life after the war please contact me.
Thank you for maintaining this site.

Wonderful site. I believe a correction is needed. In your decorations.htm page, you list 'Pfc Richmo E. Weegar' as a Silver Medal recipient. I am sure this should be 'Richard Weegar'. I am not sure of his middle initial, but am assuming the 'E.' is correct. Dick Weegar hailed from Colton, NY and I was fortunate enough to have known this bonafide hero. I want to be sure he is correctly credited for all he did for his country...

Admin reply: Page has been corrected. Thanks for the catch.

My father, Floyd R. Perry, served in Hdq Co. 2nd Battallion 517th and my brother and I were unable to verify this because of the destroyed records in St. Louis in '73. Our father died in the Indianapolis Roudebush VA Hospital July 1, 1961 of a Staph infection following back surgery. Just 2 weeks ago we located a copy of his service record and honorable discharge at the Indiana Archives office and were told that due to his Purple Heart w/1 Oak Leaf Cluster for injuries recieved in Belgium that we are eligible for remission of fees for 124 college credits. We would like to get our father added to your various recognition sites, ie; Bronze Star, Purple Heart, Algeria, Operation Dragoon, EAME Theatre Ribbon w/5 Bronze Stars; Naples/Fogia, Rome/Arno, Rhineland, Central Europe, Ardennes.

I just received a call from Nolan Powell of Ontario, NY he was in the 517 with my late father. My dads name was Francis Boyd from Oakley, KS. I was very please to hear that some of the 517 are still living and still care about their fellow soldiers. My dad passed away in Nov. of 2004 of a massive heart attack. Five years previous to that he had 4 bypasses and a heart valve replaced. My dad was very proud of his service and spoke of it until the day he died. I would really appreciate hearng from anyone who served with him or their children. My name again is Roger Boyd, 631 East 6th, Oakley,KS 67748. My home phone number is 785-671-3922
