During WW2, my great uncle Donald served in both the 17th Armored Engineer Battalion and the 22nd Armored Engineer Battalion (Company C) as part of the 2nd Armored Division. He died long before I was born, but I inherited his uniform and some photos from his service. I'd like to share what I know, and ask for help filling in the gaps. His separation papers only list the 22nd engineers, but I have letters labeled the 17th, and the uniform insignias are from the 17th. I'm not sure when he shifted from the 17th to 22nd. I would be very happy to share photos which include other soldiers and equipment also. My email is KevinWCharles@aol.com, and I'm happy to connect on Facebook if you'd like (https://www.facebook.com/groups/739835469433638/user/42812583). The contact form won't allow me to enter the required contact data, so I was unable to submit it that way. I am looking forward to connecting with others interested in this unit! - Kevin Charles
