Thank you for this. I knew two members of the 407th's Cannon Company. I wish they were still here to see the video!

I also knew a couple Ozarks vets. I wish they were still around as well. Thanks for sharing! I'm always finding more footage, so stay tuned.

I recently found my great grandfather's enlistment card and ozark patch. It was with a nazi luftwaffe patch that i didnt even notice til weeks later. Miss my papas but so greatful i got to hear their stories and meet their paratrooper buddies. I watch the movies like "yea i met those guys" and i couldnt be more proud!

My Grandfathers Tank Division the 701st provided tank support to the 102nd.

Yes, the 701st Tank Battalion was attached to the 102nd Infantry Division from April to July 1945. Thanks for sharing!

My GG grandfather was 102 Ozarks, unfortunately he died 5 years before my birth in the 1990s. But luckily he left behind many photographs since he was a photographer

[@gistories4145]

Have you ever scanned/shared them? I'd love to see them.

My Uncle Bill was in the 406th Infantry Regiment during the war. He might have been in some of this film???? Thanks for sharing.

Hello ! My father, Vincent J. Crimona was in this Infantry Division. He also was in the 406th Infantry Regiment, Company H. My friend's father, Carlo Reda, was also in this Division. I believe he was in the 405th Regiment. I'm not sure what Company he was in, though.

My Uncle John Paulow was a SGT. and spoke Russian for them. I still have the regimental book

[@Lpd7374]

Is there anything in the book about the liberation of Stalag VIJ. My grandfather was a pow there.

This video is about 6 days after my Grand Uncle Daniel Boone was killed near Tietz, Germany.
