Mark writes about his grandfather Albert Nevins ...
My Grandfather previously served in the Army during WWI as a private in the Coastal Artillery Corps at Camp Eustis, VA. After he was discharged, he joined the Marine Corps and served in Cuba. After the onset of WWII, he volunteered for service and was Commissioned as a First Lieutenant, ultimately being assigned to C Co., 757th Railway Shop BN. The rest is history

Thanks Mark for sharing ...

His son, Michael writes ...thank you very much for posting "A History Of Two Years Of Activation" , my Father Joseph F De Luca , was assigned to Headquarters Company , his name is listed on page 39 of 70 in the article. It was very rewarding for me to read about their mission and learn what my father did during the war ! He had only told me stories , but never really described there actual mission. So again, I really enjoyed your history of their Battalion! Thanks Again ;Michael DeLuca
