Anonymous said...: Not sure if this site is still active, etc. but I ran across it as I was reviewing my father’s old military records.

I noticed my father, Merle M. Jensen, also served in the 761st Railway Transportation Co, with service in the Rome-Arno Campaign, Naples-Foggia Campaign, Rhineland Campaign, and Algeria-French Morocco Campaign from Aug ’42 through Feb ’45. He was sent to the Bruns General Hospital in Santa Fe, NM with tuberculosis and afterwards to the VAF in Excelsior Springs, MO. Those soldiers in the same railcar traveling from NM to MO with my father included, Tec 5 Harold W. Furneaux, Pfc Verdie W. Williams,
Pfc Ernie T. Mears, and Pvt Fred S. Copeland. Two Attendants were Ted 5 Ingvar F. Magnuson and Pfc Morton Koplik.

Thanks much,

Gerald Jensen
