Comments: Fellows, My dad served with B Battery, 160th FA, 45th inf. Div. He froze his feet in a river crossing, had the hair burned off the back of his head by a flare, and broke his leg while being flanked by the enemy as a Forward Observer. He spoke fondly of a Major in his company but I can't remember the name. Also spent time in Hokkaido hospital and as a prison of war guard there. Dad died in june 1991, he never spoke much of the war, would love to talk to anyone that served with him. 40+ guys in his battery are from Hominy, OK. I have his service book with the names of all the men if any of you are interested.

I would love to hear from anyone that served with him during the war. He served with the 45th Infantry Division, 160th Field Artillery, I think Company E. He was from Tulsa, Oklahoma and served with the 45th as a Guard member after the war. In one of his letters there was also the name Joel Crain, also with the 160th that took lots of photos during the war. I hoped there might be some of my dad.
