Hey
I was wondering if any WWII buffs or children/grandchildren etc of WWII vets know or knew firstly anyone who was in the 11th Infantry
And also--Anyone know what the 11th Infantry did in WWII? Also, some short info on the Rhineland and Northern France campaigns?
I ask because my grandfather was in the US Army, 3rd Army, 11th Infantry, Co. F and it says he served in the Rhineland and Northern France campaigns, but I haven't found any other veterans or veterans descendants from this division, and especially not from his company. He was a Sergeant for most of his service in the war and then a Staff Sergeant from 1944 till he was shot in the leg in Luxembourg, January 1945--that ended his active duty but thankfully not his life.
It'd be cool to see if there was any other people whose family served with my grandpa, or perhaps even film--I know the Battle of the Bulge, which he was in, was heavily covered in photographs and videos.
