Comments: For anyone interested, I joined Company B almost immediately after the battalion was released from federal service, Sept 1953. The unit was in St Anthony Idaho. My brother Alma (Red) Rausch was an Air Compressor operator in Company B prior to their mobilization and served in the unit through out their time in Korea. For those interested in the history of the battalion you can find it at www.accessidaho.org/index.html or at www2.state.id.us/mil/army/116engineerbattalion.htm
I still have many relatives in that area of Idaho and will be happy to furnish any further information if you wish to contact me.

Comments: A super job you are doing for those of us who back
then were chosen to be sent to frozen chosen. was
assigned to Co "B" 116th Combat Engineer Bn.. from
Feb 1952 to Feb 1953. I have made no contact with
anyone from the old unit since I left. One of the
problems being, I can see faces but can't put a
name with the face. Hopefully, with the help of
your service, I will be able to make contact with
other members of my old unit.
I feel I need to belong to your project so, would
you please send an application form. Many thanks.
