If you have any materials connected to these great Army Railway units please share them here with the families of the soldiers. If you are a collector or memorabilia dealer PLEASE share copies or scans of items BEFORE you sell these priceless materials to private collectors . I will hold the copies until after they sell. It means so much to the families of the guy's that actually served in these units.

745th info...My dad is also in the front row. He passed away years ago and I never knew anything about the 745th until I did research in 2000-01, found some living members, and attended their 55th reunion in St. Louis. I'll dig up some tidbits. (Mark S./nov 12,2011)
Thanks Mark

My dad was a Lieutenant with this unit pictured (Company C), top row, fourth from the right. He was George Duffy and was the trainmaster at Mariani, Lumding, and Manipur. He kept a daily diary from arrival (January 10, 1944 to October, 1945). I would like to contact anyone who served in this Company or relatives to help preserve the story of their service. email me: whlrydr@aol.com
