753rd Railway Shop Battalion Fred Inman collection
Thanks Tom
He writes... Fred and Genevieve Inman lived in the Fallston, MD area since the late 1960’s. When we moved in next door to the Inmans, Fred and I found that we had a mutual love for the Fire Department … Fred used to work as a fireman and I currently work as a fireman.
Unfortunately Fred passed away not long after we moved in, but along with his history in the Fire Department, we also knew of his service in WWII. His wife Gen remained in the house next door and we became very close. It was like living next door to our grandmother.
When she passed away recently, we came across the album which contained all the pictures that Fred had taken during his service with the 753rd Railway Battalion. We wanted to share and preserve this history, and we hope others will appreciate it as much as we do.

753rd Railway Operating Battalion
Some photos of memorabilia from the 753rd Railway Shop Battalion of the United States Army. Included is the second overseas anniversary pamphlet from their celebration dated Tuesday Dec 12, 1944. There are 49 photos of this battalion overseas in what appears to be Italy. There is even a photo of the army's basketball team which is highlighted in the program as Co. B versus Co.C. There are many wonderful photos of just about everything from their football game, the 753rd Ironhorsemen.
