Name: Tom Larson From: Fergus Falls, Minnesota E-mail: bigwood@prtel.com |
My Grandfather Gerald W. Larson served
for two years with the 517th. He was wounded on two ocasions, and passed
away in 1995. He never talked about the war, service and his experiences.
I know he fought with nightmares for many years as a close friend perished
in his arms. I am deeply honored by all our veterans of the 517 who
proudly served our country and thank you for our freedom. I am hoping
someone can help me link the pieces or may remember him. He went by Jerry
Larson from Minnesota! I can be reached at 218-736-5371.
