E-mail: rhartsock1967@hotmail.com 		My grandfather, Robert Hartsock, is listed on his headstone as a member of Co. I, 517th Par. Inf during WWII, and the army lists him as serving from 1943 to 1946 being discharge as a member of the 82nd AB. Would like to know more about his service from anyone who might have information. Thanks, Robert Hartsock.

From: Fort Stewart, GA
E-mail: derek.john.baxter@us.army.mil 		CPL John Brunner passed on 14 JUN 2014, he loved reminiscing with me about his experiences with the 517th and enjoyed his news letters. If any of you are still in touch with the boys at the reunions, let them know he is securing the DZ with the rest of them in heaven.

Admin reply: Cpl. John J. Brunner was with Battery C, 460th PFAB.

Name: Don Darnell
From: Chicago area
E-mail: dondarnell48@gmail.com 		I see on my father's 1945 VA discharge card that he was a PFC with the 517th Airborne Signal Company when discharged on 9 28 1945. He passed in 1997.

Anyone remember a skinny PFC with brown curly hair and perhaps some acne on his face?

He probably went by DALE DARNELL, although his given name was Aubry Dale Darnell.

Thanks.

E-mail: lewis151@bellsouth.net 		I am enjoying looking at this great web site. My Grandfather was William (Bill) Lewis and he used to be Secretary(?) for the 517 and may have published some news letters for the 517. Again, great site.
