My name is Travis Ellington, and my grandfather, Ed Ellington served in the 517th from 1943 to 1945. He was in HQ company 1st Bat. I am currently working on a project to document his life; I was young when he passed away, and although I was lucky enough to know him, I was too young to realize what a tremendous sacriface he made for his country and my freedom. I have found a good number of pictures and documents, as well as letters he sent home to his family members. If you would like, I would like to give copies of these articles to you to be added to your website if you could use them. I would also like to make contact with anyone who might have any information on him. Thank you for all the valuable information on the website. Also if anyone has any tips that may help me in finding information on my Grandfather, I would greatly appreciate it. I look forward from hearing from someone soon!

What a wonderful web site! Thanks to all who made it possible for me to learn more about my uncle, who I never had the pleasure of knowing. His name was Pvt. Al D. Baggett, 2 BN HQ. He was KIA Sept of 1944. From Louisiana. He was at LSU on a football scholarship when he enlisted. That sums up almost everything I know about him. If you knew Al, I'd be most grateful to hear your remembrances of him and of your service together. Thank you.

My uncle Sgt. Robert E. Needham recently passed away and was in the 517th B Co. Parachute Combat Team. I am in possesion of a few items that belonged to him, a few photos (w/ names on the back), a booklet about the 517th w/ some signatures). I am looking for the names of his buddies as I look through this sight. ie: Melvin Biddle of Anderson, In. is one of the signatures in the book. And yes, it was Co. B.
