DOES ANYONE REMEMBER DONALD DOMSKY? |
| AMY NUTT wrote on January 31, 2012 CITY AND STATE: NEWARK NJ UNIT: SERVICE OR RELATIONSHIP: INTERESTED PERSON Comments: I am a reporter in New Jersey looking for anyone with any information on Donald Domsky. Mr. Domsky died alone in his home in December 2010 in Wayne, NJ (99 Black Oak Ridge Road). His body was not found for more than a year. There is very little known about him, except that his old Dodge truck bore a 1993 187th Airborne reunion sticker. Jim Bockman, v.p. of the national association identified him as member #181 of a Pathfinder chapter that is now defunct. He was a tall man with a mind for trivia, according to neighbors, but a recluse. Please email me or call if you can help piece together the mystery of Donald Domsky. He deserves better. Thank you Keywords: Donald Domsky age 80, was a member of the Rakkasan Association and Pathfinder chapter. I believe he is a veteran of the 187th Army Airborne. He was an original member -- #181 -- of the Rakkasan Assoc. and I believe attended the 1993 reunion in Nashville, Tenn. |

If any stories or experiences were told to my father I do not know. My father died when I was 15 before I knew anything or had interest about family history. I wish I would have been able to know him and hear whatever stories he was willing to tell. I do have a couple pictures of him however, I would love to hear from anybody who served with him or anybody who has pictures of him. I have been doing lots of research and I'm trying to learn all that I can about his service with the 187th. A lot of that history died with him due to a certain family member taking all he had in the middle of the night after he died and disappearing with awards and papers never to be seen again. What really went with him was the stories and his experiences. I would love to hear from anybody that knew him! Keywords: Glen Ganow, company I, 187th |

He is celebrating his 60th Anniversary with my mother and I was looking for any information of anyone who may have knew him or has pictures of that time. I would love to be able to give him this information. His records burned up in st louis in the 1973 fire. he has had no benifits from the vetrans affairs because of this and is to proud to pursue this. I have tried but keep running into rd blocks. He recieved 2 gold stars and made 3 jumps behind enemy lines. I am so proud of my dad and for all the milatary from then and now and pray for all every day. may GOD BLESS YOU ALL !!!! |
