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.

Hello All. I am a World War II Airborne Uniform collector. I have recently added the Uniform grouping of 517th vet Wilbur Ingram of Company G. I was wondering if anyone had any information of him. There is a lot of stuff with this group. I was wondering if anyone had any info on the member of the 517th. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
