Naomi shares her amazing slide presentation " First of all, it was very interesting to tour your Military Railway Service blog. I can see why our presentation would be of interest.

"I did find a roster from what I believe was their trip home in 1945.  I've attached a jpg with the image of the document.

According to this they were staged in Luzon, P.I.  and traveled back on ship # APA 121."
