Name: COL Stevenson M. Wallace (Ret)
From: Savannah, GA
E-mail: smacgw@GMAIL.com 		SGT Charles E. Wallace, G Company, 4th Platoon- he was my father, he passed away Jan 2004 in Nashville, TN. We were at the reunion in Nashville in the 80's. He was my inspiration for becoming a n airborne soldier in Special Forces. He talked about the Bulge, freezing weather, trenchfoot and German mines that failed to explode due to being frozen. Would like to contact other G Company connections. When is the next reunion?

Name: Martin Neaman
From: Pittsburgh, PA
E-mail: mneaman@hotmail.com 		My father, Earl Mangello, was a Private in E Company, 517th PRCT. He died in July, 1947. I am looking for any information on him and for anyone that may have known him. He was 5'6" and weighed 98 pounds when he was inducted. He was wounded in the leg while a member of the unit. I don't know if he was wounded in Italy, France or at the Bulge, or if he was separated from the unit due to his injury. He served from 3-23-43 to 9-1-45. Any information would be very much appreciated. Thank you.
