Thanks so much to the great TimM for these great records as he said “Most of those records came from the US Army Center of Military History and all I did was copy them during lunch breaks when I worked nearby in downtown DC in 1993-1994.…. Heck, I was a peacetime GI railroader, no big deal. I was lucky no one was shooting at me and the trains and track were in good condition”
