Comments: My father served in the 999th as a forward observer for the big guns in Europe during WW2. According to the Army, records for the unit during that time were destroyed in a fire. Is there anyone out there a veteran of that unit? I would love to hear from you. My dad is now 87 and we were talking about his time in the service. It's a fascinating history.
