DANNY ROBB wrote on December 7, 2009 City and State: Unit: Service or Relationship: FAMILY MEMBER Comments: Hello, My father in law is Roy Shiba. He served in the 224th HQ Company. He said that he started with the engineers and then became the driver and interpreter for the Hq Commander in Japan. I have a picture of him at Camp Cooke in 1950 before the unit deployed to Japan and then Korea. He does not have any other records and his service records were destroyed in the 1976 fire in St. Louis. I am trying to find a copy of orders or anything else to help establish his service. If you have anything or would like a copy of the picture. Please let me know. Thanks! Danny Keywords: HQ Company, Camp Cooke, Shiba
