Name: Dennis Sura
From: Novi, MI
E-mail: dudeed@sbcglobal.net 		My dad Mike Sura was a PFC in the 517th, 3rd Battalion, Company H, 3rd Platoon, squad leader of 2nd squad. He serviced with Sgt. Fred Harmon, George Monkhouse, Manfred Seeberger, Dick Huggler and many other troopers I forgot. I always wanted to know more about Seeberger. Dick Huggler is still alive and lives in Alpina, MI.

Please feel free to contact me if you know or want to tell old stories of Company H. Dad told me a lot about the war on our many fishing trips.

E-mail: jcfrom1973@hotmail.com 		I love this site! Absolutely, the best place for all things 517th. I am a reenactor/living historian. The unit I am in charge of,has decided that our permanent unit impression, will be that of F Company, 2d Battalion, 517th PRCT.

We would all like to join the association, as friends. We would also like to know, if there are any Vets in The MD, VA, southern PA area, that could serve as an advisor to the unit?

This would be an amazing chance for us to have a one-on-one relationship with a 517th Vet, and get the strait scoop!

Name: Virginia Votti
From: Austin, Texas
E-mail: vavotti@clinbio.com 		My father, Carl Votti, left us in 1999 for that great army in heaven. I miss him so very much. I am hoping to attend the reunion in St. Louis to pay my respects to his commrades and their families. I remember attending the 20th reunion with my father in Fort Bragg, NC. This was back in 1964. I was only 8 years old, but it made a life-long impression. May God bless and keep you all, here, over, and "up" there.

E-mail: aberry@initsys.co.uk 		Hi All,

I am Adam from the UK. Have been an Airborne enthusiast for not sure how many years now, and an avid collector of WWII memorabilia. I am currently working on a book about the actions of the 517th, 551st and 509th during the Battle Of The Bulge. Me and my father have rented an apartment in Belgium especially for research purposes and are over most weekends. Any help regarding the 517ths actions in Belgium, do please E-mail me, i'm especially interest in veteran accounts.

This is a great website, and a god send and its great being able to spend hours searching through the hundreds of photos the website provides.

To all those who served in the 517th PRCT, thank you.

Regards to all, hope to get to know you all soon.

Adam
