378th Combat Engineers, detached

I am trying to track down some war buddies of my father.

My father, Norman Gerber #US551210905 was assigned to the 378th 
Combat Engineers, but was always on detached service.  He was drafted 
on 2/26/51, and was discharged on 5/31/53.

He trained in Camp Rucker, Alabama. He was injured on 4/2/52. He lost
his leg when his tractor hit a mine.

He was sent directly to the States when he was injured, so he has 
never spoken to any of his old buddies since then.

All of the information I have is their names and the above info on my 
father. Their names are:  Bobby Brown and Robert Brown,  both of 
North Carolina.

If you have any information on where I can track down these two men, 
or how I can get information on them, please contact me ASAP.

I would like to make some connection with them for my father's 
Christmas Present.  This is one of his biggest regrets in life, and I 
would like to give him the opportunity to talk to these men again.

Thank you in advance for your help.

I am trying to locate information on the 378th ECB as I served in 
the unit during 1953..

Where can I find history on this unit?  I understand it was a Guard 
unit from one of the Carolina's.

Also, would be interested if the unit ever has had or has reunions.
Thank you for any information you can provide.  Keep up the good 
work on your web site.
